    Mr. Insurance Broker (Tony Verreos) says this article is a real public service piece. Most people have so much to deal with in their life, that their Homeowners insurance is one of the last things they want to focus on. With over fifty years in the business in CA, I’ve seen it all, but none of us knows it all.

    1> Get your Homeowners insurance right NOW. Tomorrow may be too late.

    2> With materials costs up 400% in some cases, don’t be fooled by outdated
    computer programs or estimates that are not based on actual costs in your
    location for your type of home. We don’t want people to waste money by
    over insuring, but the chances of that now are just the opposite.

    3> Outdated models and experience may have suggested that people could
    repair or rebuild within six months or a year, but recent experience has
    demonstrated how that is often not the case through no fault of the home
    owner, or anyone else. Shortages of materials and labor combined with
    bad weather mean major delays. Where will you stay? Planning in
    advance can help cut your stress, and lower your expenses too.

    A motorhome may be right for some, a mobile home for others, and in any
    case consider buying a much higher limit for cover D = Loss of Use.
