I am currently living in Orlando Florida and have the opportunity to buy a car in PA at the end of April. I do need to drive this car back down to Fla, of course. How do I go about getting car insurance that would be able to be transferred from Pennsylvania to Florida?

First, you need to find out if you are allowed to directly place Florida insurance on this vehicle when you take possession of it or if you need Pennsylvania insurance to pick it up and drive it home to Florida. The PA DMV and FL HSMV should be able to advise you on this situation of buying a car in one state to drive back to the state you reside in.

If you can place Florida insurance on the vehicle at the time of purchase, you can get this auto insurance from our website, or call one of our licensed agents at 1-800-964-4859, get the proof of insurance, and provide a copy of a Florida registration to the insurance company usually with in 30 days.

If you instead find out that you will need Pennsylvania insurance to drive the vehicle home to Florida, you can go to our website to purchase your PA car insurance, but you will then need to purchase new Florida insurance once you have reached Florida. Some insurance companies will help you adjust or changeover the coverage from one state to the other if they are licensed to offer insurance policies in both states.
