Consolidated gross written premiums of $ 185.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 were up 7.6 % from $ 171.9 million in the second quarter of 2020 .

Consolidated gross premiums earned of $ 139.4 million for the second quarter of 2021 were up 29.3 % from $ 107.8 million in the second quarter of 2020 . The increase was driven by the growth in Homeowners Choice gross premiums earned from $ 89.4 million to $ 100.4 million and the growth of TypTap gross premiums earned from $ 18.4 million to $ 39.0 million . Premiums ceded for reinsurance for the second quarter of 2021 increased to $ 46.4 million from $ 34.4 million in the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the growth in both TypTap and Homeowners Choice and represented 33.3 % and 31.9 % , respectively , of gross premiums earned . Net investment income increased to $ 2.6 million from $ 1.6 million in the second quarter of 2020. This increase was due to an increase in income from limited partnership and real estate investments , offset by a decrease in interest income from fixed - maturity security investments . Net realized investment gains increased to $ 2.6 million from $ 1.4 million in the second quarter of 2020. This increase was primarily due to net gains from selling equity securities . Net unrealized investment gains were $ 1.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared with $ 2.9 million in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the sales of equity securities with aggregate net gains during the second quarter . Losses and loss adjustment expenses were $ 55.9 million compared with $ 39.8 million in the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily due to growth in gross premiums earned related to the quota share arrangement with United and the growth in TypTap . Policy acquisition and other underwriting expenses were $ 23.2 million compared with $ 13.0 million in the same quarter of 2020.
