On October 25th, a 5.1 magnitude Earthquake hit the Bay Area. This is the largest Earthquake in Northern California since the Napa Earthquake in 2004. Luckily, the damage was minimal, but USGS experts agree that it is only a matter of time before a much larger quake will occur in California. If your home was seriously damaged or destroyed in an Earthquake, could you afford to repair or rebuild your home? Would you be able to continue paying your mortgage and taxes while your home was being rebuilt? An Earthquake can be financially devastating to a homeowner, yet in California less than 15% currently have Earthquake coverage. Certainly, part of the reason is the cost, since the premium can easily exceed what your Homeowners premium is. The other reason is, previously, the lowest deductible you could find was 10%. We now have an Earthquake policy that can be tailored to your individual needs.
Some of the highlights of this policy are:
- Deductibles as low as 2.5%.
- Choose your limits for Other Structures, Contents, and Additional Living Expenses.
- Rates apply separately for each coverage, so you only pay for the coverage you need.
- No age restrictions - Retrofitting not required.
Even if you currently have coverage through the CEA or another insurer, it is worth your time to have us re-quote your coverage. If you do not have Earthquake coverage, get a quote so you can make an educated decision about your coverage needs. Preparing for the next big one is not always enough. Insurance provides security and peace of mind.
