Orlando Relocation : Being Prepared with Insurance for Orlando Hurricanes
There is no question that Orlando residents are getting tired of preparing for Hurricane season year after year.
Sometimes I think about the amount of money I spend every year preparing for these hurricanes. I bought a generator after the first hurricane in 2004 because I didn’t want to suffer through the heat ever again! And now, when I fire off the generator at the beginning of the hurricane season (just to make sure it works because that would be a sticky situation if it did not) I cringe because I now have to pay $4.oo per gallon to fill it up. Besides the water, the food, the generator, the gas, the batteries, and everything else, as a homeowner you need to decide what to do with your house in the event you need to head to safer ground.
Be sure that you have a homeowner’s insurance policy that includes coverage for home damage and floods. Your insurance company should be able to provide you with a Hurricane Preparation Guide to prepare you, your family and your home.
If you are relocating to Orlando, be sure to check with your home owners insurance company, so that you are fully prepared for the Hurricane season.
