Don’t Be Fooled: Catastrophic Coverage is NOT the Same as Sinkhole Coverage

Under a law that went into effect in January, all people in Hernando County will automatically lose their coverage for sinkhole problems and have it replaced with catastrophic coverage.

Instead, the home experiences subsidence, of varying degrees, but never “falls” into the hole.
