It goes without saying that the cost of a high-value home insurance policy designed for a multimillion-dollar home will be greater than the cost of a standard mass-market policy designed for less valuable homes. The increased cost is not only because the insured value of the home is higher, but often also is the result of a premium location with greater geographic risk considerations.

In 2025, the landscape of high-value homeowners insurance is evolving amidst higher rebuilding costs, rising premiums, and emerging climate risks. Inflation, supply chain disruptions, and frequent natural disasters have pushed national homeowners insurance averages to between $2,100 and $2,600 annually for $300K dwelling coverage. For multimillion-dollar homes, the stakes are even higher: premiums for a $1 million dwelling now average around $7,500 per year.

Coastal CEO David W. Clausen was featured in the March 2025 edition of Insurance Journal. David shared his expertise on the current state of the luxury home insurance market in California after the most recent wildfire catastrophe.

“No matter where you live, there’s risk. It would be a shame to see some of the most beautiful landscapes in the U.S. become uninhabitable or unaffordable simply because insurers can’t find a sustainable, long-term path to profitability.”

When the calendar flipped to 2025, Lacey Garrison Strom was optimistic. As the executive vice president of private client services at California-based

“As data collection and modeling technologies have improved, it’s given rise to individual risk-model scoring,” Clausen noted. “Rather than Suffolk County or a Hamptons zip code location, areas like south of Route 27 can be an eligibility category.”

Across Suffolk County, about 55,000 people live on so-called “exposed land,” according to data from the nonprofit Climate Central.
