Well, that's about the only nice thing I can say about Farmer's
Insurance - they only went up $5 the second year.

I have repeatedly found insurance policies (starting with my own) that
were set up to insure the entire property and not just the house.
Furthermore, given today's steel stud construction, building a new
house can be a lot cheaper than it used to be. If the parts are computer
machined, a new house might even cost less in terms of labor than
fixing an old one.

Today's steel stud construction? Most houses built here in Michigan
still seem to be using regular old wooden studs.
