flood insurance: Homeowners Insurance - Getting the Best Policy in Massachusetts
- 06/19/09 04:25 AM
Several weeks prior to your closing in Massachusetts, you should start the process of shopping for homeowner's insurance. It's a good idea to begin looking soon after your offer has been accepted. There are dozens of carriers available so making choice can be difficult. Get recommendations from friends, co-workers or your Buyer Broker. Insurance companies will ask you a number of questions that will affect the premium and your coverage. Be prepared to be asked the following: Is the property in a flood zone? Does the area get a lot of storms? Is there a fire hydrant nearby? (0 comments)
