Types of Coverage our company finances

Process of finance agreement

A minimum down payment corresponding to 25% of the total of the insurance premium is required. If you request a down payment less than 25% of the total premium amount, it should be authorized by a representative of SFSC. The insured can finance their policies to a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 10 months, for policies of 12 months. If the policy is 6-month duration, the insured can finance their policies to a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 4 months. Documentary tax stamps are part of the premium financed and are levied at a rate of $.35 per $100 (per portion thereof) on documents delivered or executed in Florida.

These documentary tax stamps do not apply to Georgia. The finance charge includes interest plus a non-refundable charge of $20.00 for the state of Florida. In the state of Georgia, the $20.00 non-refundable charge apply for personal policies only and does not apply for commercial policies. Insurance Premium Fees should be paid by the insured and can’t be financed.
