Did your policyholders know standard insurance policies do not cover flooding?
It takes 30 days for a new policy to be issued!
During this time right before hurricane season starts (it begins June 1st), you should be doing policy check-ups with your policyholders.
Just a few things to evaluate:
- Has the home increased in value?
- Have any new contents that have been acquired since the last check up covered?
- Have any new types of property (renter, vehicle or business) been acquired that will need coverage?
Arm your policyholders with:
- An inventory the home or business
- Recommendations to keep important documents & records in a safe place
- Make insurance policy numbers & contact information handy
