AI Summary

  • Changes homeowner's insurance cancellation notice requirement from first-class mail to certified mail with return receipt requested, sent to the named insured at the last address on file at least 30 days in advance.

  • Requires insurers to provide notice that specifically states reasons for proposed cancellation or nonrenewal action, with exception for nonpayment of premium which requires only 10 days' notice.
