The Homeowners Consumer Center is urging homeowners in Illinois to call them anytime at 866-714-6466 if their insurance company has given them a less than adequate settlement for serious damage that has occurred to their home because of a severe storm, or fire damage. The types of serious damage and low-ball insurance settlements the Center would like to hear about include:
- The home suffered severe roof, or siding damage because of a severe storm, or fire, and the insurance settlement failed to provide the homeowner with enough money to make the needed for repairs.
- The home flooded because of an interior wall pipe burst, and the insurance settlement did not pay for all of the damage.
- The homeowner had significant home, and personal property damage because of a roof leak, or pipe bust, and the homeowners insurance company failed to provide the homeowner with enough money to replace the personal property, and make the necessary repairs.
- Contractors in Illinois who have proof their homeowner client received a lowball settlement from a insurance company because they have documentation proving what the repairs should have cost.
- The Homeowners Consumer Center is urging siding, roofing, or window contractors, or Illinois real estate agents to tell their clients about this initiative, if they believe a low ball insurance settlement has happened to one of their clients. http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.Com
The Homeowners Consumer Center says, "If a homeowner in Illinois has documentation they were forced to receive a low ball insurance settlement related to severe home damage caused by a storm, or fire we are urging them to call us anytime at 866-714-6466. We are attempting to correct this situation for homeowners in this predicament.
"In addition to homeowners in Illinois, if you live in Colorado, New Jersey, New York, or Tennessee and your insurance company has given you a less that sufficient settlement on a homeowners insurance we would like to hear from you.
"Our only caveat is the insurance claim can be no older than two years old, and the proof of loss must be well documented by the homeowner, or their contractor." http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.Com
