You just discovered you have a property loss at your home or business, what do you do? Documentation is key. The more documents you have on hand after a property loss can make a huge difference and can expedite the claims process.
“My recommendation is, contact your (insurance) agent or broker, report your loss to them, put a diary together of everything you reported to your agent or broker, and then thereafter send an email memorializing the same in writing. Now you have a paper record,” says Allied PA Principle and CEO Hratch Ghazarian.
Alternatively, you can contact a licensed claims professional, like Allied Public Adjusters, before you contact your insurance agent or broker to help you secure relevant documents and educate you on your options so you can decide what to do next.
