Why do homeowner insurance companies add a surcharge for a claim from different home?
They generally do not. It just depends on the type of claims you filed while in that previous home.
Claims that result from natural occurrences (Wind, Hail, lightning, etc) are not surcharged against you. These types of losses are beyond our control.
Claims that result from negligence, apathy, lack of maintenance, lack of moral or lifestyle will be. this is because these types of claims are attributable to the owners own actions or in-action and not the home or it's geographic location.
