Fact-check: “Berkeley One requires one to have a central alarm system to obtain house insurance from it.”
Verdict: Misleading (72% confidence)
Berkley One's official materials consistently frame central alarm systems as optional credit-generating features, not universal eligibility requirements. A Texas-specific underwriting reference guide (2022) does impose a central fire alarm requirement for homes meeting certain high-value and protection-class thresholds, so the claim is accurate for some applicants but overstates it as a blanket rule.
