Homeowner insurance rates in Washington are increasing, even for those with no reported claims, due to a combination of factors. Here are two of the major reasons.


  1. Rising Claim Costs and Inflation: The cost of repairing or rebuilding homes has surged due to inflation, higher labor costs, and expensive building materials. According to the Washington State Standard, homeowner claim costs in Washington nearly doubled from $941 million in 2018 to $2 billion in 2023. This increase in claim severity forces insurers to raise premiums across the board to cover future payouts, even for policyholders without claims.
  2. Wildfires and Climate-Related Risks: Washington’s increasing exposure to wildfires, particularly in areas like Spokane where fires destroyed over 350 homes in 2023, has driven up claim costs. Insurers adjust rates to account for heightened risks from climate-related disasters, such as wildfires, floods, and storms, which are becoming more frequent and severe. These adjustments affect all policyholders in the state, regardless of individual claim history, as insurers spread the risk.
