and Another Corpus Christi Family Spends
Entire Life Savings to Make Up the Difference
It was a scene out of the movies. Turning into their neighborhood
after a long day of running errands, the retired couple found the
street blocked by emergency vehicles – and their home a smoking
ruin.
Once the rubble was cleared away and reconstruction began, they
learned the horrible truth: rebuilding can cost a lot more than new
construction. The replacement cost exceeded the insured value of
their home. So, after twenty years of living mortgage-free, the
couple found themselves saddled with another loan.
Adding insult to injury, they had to cough up thousands of dollars
to replace their possessions. Their policy only paid actual cash
value – the cost to replace an item less the estimated depreciation.
Their older, well-maintained furniture, electronics and appliances
were worth practically nothing.
Conclusion: The
loss of your home is traumatic enough, without having to pay
thousands of dollars out of pocket to restore your quality of life.
Our policies always pay replacement costs.
