AT028 Hurricane Harvey Update and Tips for New Adjusters

 

We are nearly a week into the destruction caused by the CAT5 hurricane - Hurricane Harvey - that impacted residents throughout Texas this month. The catastrophe and destruction caused by the hurricane has significantly impacted millions of people, causing wind and water damage across millions of homes.

 

On today’s episode, I’m sharing an update regarding Hurricane Harvey and the devastation it has left in its wake. I’ll share my predictions on how this storm will impact the insurance adjusting industry overall as well as tips for new adjusters working in the field. I’ll also share strategies to help you settle your first Hurricane Harvey claim, ways to stay organized and productive, and the importance of being empathetic and doing your part to help those affected by the storm - even if you haven’t been deployed yet.
