Given that any discussion has run it's course, I have made several edits that reflect more closely my personal version of the model and it's prior trades for any who wish to follow along.

The model continues to be in 100% REITs, I choose to use VNQ (or a combination of VNQ/DRN leveraged).

That said, I highly recommend shopping your insurance every 1-2 years regardless of company but especially Geico as they have a loyalty surcharge instead of a discount. In many cases you can even get a better rate with Geico by requoting due to this fact. Otherwise, I think they are a fine insurance company.

They do give a discount for having multipe policies with them, but they do not give you a discount for have insurance with them for multiple consecutive renewals as many other companies have.
