☆ See how badly your home could be hit by heat, wind, and bad air over the next 30 years

Realtor.com has unveiled a set of climate risk tools that homeowners and homebuyers alike can use to learn the specific climate risks of a property. The tools, called Heat Factor, Wind Factor, and Air Factor, are available starting Wednesday and can map out a neighborhood's risks of above-normal days on the heat index, chances of experiencing wind gusts over 50 mph, and days of poor air quality. More than 40% of US homes, valued at a combined $20 trillion, are vulnerable to extreme heat, wind, and poor air quality, according to a Realtor.com analysis. Understanding your home's climate riskPrior to releasing the heat, wind, and air quality tools, Realtor.com already provided fire and flood risks for properties based on data from First Street. First Street, a climate-risk firm, is also behind the data on extreme heat, wind, and air quality now added to listings.

☆ Insuring your home in Colorado can cost $40,000 as the climate crisis wreaks havoc on the market, one insurance CEO said

AdvertisementAdvertisementThis as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Oscar Seikaly, CEO at NSI Insurance Group, which is based in Florida but underwrites policies nationally, about skyrocketing insurance premiums and how unpredictable disasters around the country raise prices for everyone. Over the past 10 years, insurance premiums have changed dramatically. AdvertisementAdvertisementTake the average house in Aspen: You have $5 million for the house, $3 million for the contents, another $2 million for loss of rents. All these insurance companies have to buy from reinsurance companies and there's only three or four main ones in the world. When you buy a $5 million house or a $10 million house, paying $30,000 or $20,000 a year is not going to make a difference.

☆ Florida's mega-rich could pay $600K for annual home insurance in elite enclaves as the state is slammed with increasingly severe hurricanes

Insurance rates in Florida have tripled in recent years, according to Bloomberg. For the ultra-rich, insurance companies could sell five- to six- figure policies. Homeowners across Florida have seen rates increase threefold in the past few years, the report found. Weather risks, along with a combination of other factors, have caused insurance companies to pivot and stop issuing new policies in Florida. California, a state that is prone to wildfires and extreme weather, has also experienced an exodus of insurance companies.
