In my opinion Earth Quake insurance is just another way to get into your pocket...also take a look at the amount of deductible damage you have to have before the insurance kicks in...it's usually a very high deductible...
Dont trailer homes just rock a lot in a quake? Sort of like spending 5 minutes with a $50 hooker in it?


I am in the process of purchasing a home in NC and have pondered quake insurance. I cannot imagine it costing too much there. Property tax on a 180K home is running $400 a year and basic homeowners another $400. Compared to the 1600 / 1500 I pay respectively here in Florida its a deal.

Any good bible thumper out there will tell you that the bible predicts increases in earthquakes as the end approaches so maybe some good insurance just in case would be prudent.
