How Do You Survive And Submit A Personal Property Insurance Claim?
Nobody wants disaster to strike. Few people are emotionally or psychologically ready to cope with the aftermath. But many people have home insurance policies that cover their personal property (or contents of their home). This coverage only works if you file a claim, which might not be high on the list of what you want to think about after a fire, flood or earthquake has damaged or scattered your possessions. But if you want that insurance check, you’ll have to work for it, and soon. Here are some helpful tips to remember during that difficult time. Understand this: your insurance claims adjuster and salvage professionals are not part of your support system. Unless you hire a public adjuster, the insurance company will send you one whose (bonus-driven) job is to save them money. Salvage professionals, if hired by insurance, might offer extravagant services. Insurance won’t appreciate the charges if you accept too many of these services. Survey the damage to your home’s contents as soon
