Got a notice?
- Find your policy end date and start shopping now. TDI says to have a new policy in place before your current one expires (TDI), and never to cancel a policy until you have the new one or a written statement of coverage (TDI shopping tips).
- Ask for the reason in writing. For declinations, cancellations and nonrenewals after January 1, 2026, the company must give you a written statement of why (TDI).
- Get sample rates on TDI's HelpInsure.com, then ask companies or a licensed independent agent for quotes (TDI). Check an agent's license with TDI's agent lookup or the TDI Help Line, 800-252-3439.
- If two companies turn you down, you may be able to buy through the Texas FAIR Plan, the state's home insurer of last resort (TDI). On the coast, wind and hail coverage may come from TWIA (TDI).
- If you think it was unfair, you can file a complaint with TDI.
