Insurance term
Hurricane Deductible
A separate, usually higher deductible that applies only to damage caused by a named hurricane. It is often a percentage of your home’s insured value rather than a flat dollar amount, and is common in coastal states like Florida.
Example
A Florida home insured for $300,000 with a 2% hurricane deductible would pay the first $6,000 of hurricane damage.
