Before you call State Farm

Call us first, so we can read your full policy and give State Farm written notice with the facts and photos that support the claim. Until then, photograph everything before anything is thrown out, make only the repairs that stop more damage, and don’t give a statement or sign anything. See the first 24 hours after property damage.

Your deadlines and State Farm’s, in Florida

Give notice within 1 year of the date of loss (18 months for a supplemental claim); we give it for you. The insurer must acknowledge the claim within 7 days and pay or deny within 60 days of notice, unless factors beyond its control intervene (Fla. Stat. §§627.70132, 627.70131). See every Florida and New Jersey claim deadline.

…and in New Jersey

The insurer must begin investigating within 10 working days of notice and pay within 30 days of properly executed proofs of loss, or explain the delay in writing (N.J.A.C. 11:2-17.7). Your policy sets the notice and lawsuit deadlines, so call us promptly. See every Florida and New Jersey claim deadline.

Where State Farm claims most often need help

State Farm Florida writes homeowners, condo unit (HO-6) and renters policies, so most of its claims are water, wind and roof losses on homes and condos. On condo claims, the line between the association’s master policy and your HO-6 decides who pays for what; see master policy vs. HO-6. On roof claims, Florida’s matching and roof-repair rules often decide the outcome; see the roof-repair code change.

How Homeland helps with your State Farm claim

We represent you, not the insurance company. We read your policy, document the loss, prepare a line-item estimate, and handle the claim with State Farm’s adjusters from start to finish, in English or Spanish. If State Farm has already paid or denied, upload the letter or estimate to Claim Review for a free first read.

Frequently asked questions

Should I call State Farm first?
Call us first. We review your policy and the damage, then give State Farm written notice of the claim, so the claim starts with the facts that support it.
Can my public adjuster also be the appraiser on my State Farm claim?
Your public adjuster can guide you through appraisal, but the appraiser must be disinterested. In Parrish v. State Farm Florida Insurance Co. (February 9, 2023), the Florida Supreme Court held that an appraiser paid a contingency fee on the claim has a financial interest and is not “disinterested” under the policy’s appraisal clause. If your State Farm claim goes to appraisal, choose an appraiser with no stake in the outcome. We’ll explain how the process works.
Is my New Jersey State Farm policy with the same company as a Florida one?
No. In Florida, State Farm’s home, condo and renters policies are written by State Farm Florida Insurance Company. In New Jersey, they are written by State Farm Fire and Casualty Company. The company on your declarations page is the one that owes the claim, and each state’s deadlines apply.
Can I hire a public adjuster on a State Farm claim?
Yes. A licensed public adjuster represents you, the policyholder, on the claim. Homeland is licensed in Florida and New Jersey.
