Jenn and Laura revisit 2018 when Hurricane Florence ravaged the south eastern United States.  Jenn and her family were living in North Carolina at the time and had to evacuate.  While they were safe, her home had some damage.  Her homeowners insurance came to the rescue and advertised “evacuation funds” and “home damage funds” if you file a claim. Naturally, she filed a claim.  Her insurance was great and she was refunded.

Fast forward to 2021 and needing to buy another home, Jenn finds that she cannot get approved for homeowners insurance. Yes, that’s right.  Apparently, being affected by inclement weather can cause future insurance issues.

Come listen to how claims are filed, how many you can actually have and the hassle she has had to go through to fix her homeowner’s insurance issue as she is currently trying to purchase a home. If you are anywhere, that has seasonal extreme weather, please listen.  This discussion can save you some future headache.
