yeah, that claim is going to cost you more in the long run now. if you don't want to spend the money to fix the house, find an insurance broker, they might be able to find a company to insure you, the way it is, but your not going to like the price. If you show your current insurance company your working on the house, and give them a schedule of when the work will be done, they might consider doing a month to month thing. Michael

I tried to get him to not file one of the claims we filed last year for this reason and he ignored me. It was a $1400 repair and we have a $1000 deductible. Jennifer _____ From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> ] On Behalf Of Dan Rossi Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 7:48 AM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] home owner insurance Jennifer, Is money a motivator for your husband? I believe you have a mortgage on your home. Mortgage companies won't allow you to go without insurance. Thus, if you can't get your own insurance, the mortgage company will sell you insurance and you won't be happy with how much they will charge you either. So, you are either going to have to spend some money on repairs, or you are going to spend money on very expensive insurance. Sorry to be a downer. -- Blue skies.
