Protecting that investment has never been more important for homeowners and property owners. When Mother Nature or good old fashion bad luck cause damage to a property, homeowners turn to their insurers to help them restore their property. Insurers, meanwhile, are as equally interested in enhancing their bottom lines as homeowners are in protecting their investment. When these interests collide, the claim game begins and the fight to protect your home and get what is owed you becomes a high stakes game of chance. Without the right guidance, without knowing the Rules of the Game--rules written by and for the insurers--you could find yourself on the losing end. The Claim Game levels the playing field between homeowners and insurers by giving homeowners the knowledge and tools needed to empower themselves so that they can get every penny owed them and claim victory. Discover the secrets to homeowner insurance settlement with the only step-by-step guide to property insurance claims written by an insurance insider. Exposing little-known methods that enable you to expedite your claim and get every penny owed you, The Claim Game is your comprehensive resource for homeowners insurance and property damage claims. The Claim Game will teach you how to: - Settle claims quickly and fairly. - Reduce or eliminate your deductible. - Decipher a policy so it makes sense. - Discover hidden coverages that protect you and save money. - Organize claim information to expedite your claim. - Get a denied claim covered. - Understand an estimate from a contractor or an insurer. - Select the right contractor to repair your home or property. Also included: - Claim-specific guidance for many types of losses including hurricane, tornado, earthquake, hail, fire and many others. - An in-depth exploration of the most common issues and concerns homeowners encounter.

Download or read book Flood and Homeowners Insurance written by Ella Grace Irwin and published by . This book was released on 2014-05-21 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to stakeholders with whom the United States Government Accountability office spoke, several conditions must be present to increase private sector involvement in the sale of flood insurance. First, insurers need to be able to accurately assess risk to determine premium rates. Second, insurers need to be able to charge premium rates that reflect the full estimated risk of potential flood losses while still allowing the companies to make a profit, as well as be able to decide which applicants they will insure. However, stakeholders said that such rates might seem unaffordable to many homeowners. Third, insurers need sufficient consumer participation to properly manage and diversify their risk, but stakeholders said that many property owners do not buy flood insurance because they may have an inaccurate perception of their risk of flooding. This book addresses the conditions needed for private sector involvement in flood insurance and strategies for increasing private sector involvement.
