Common Disputes Faced By Homeowners When Filing An Insurance Claim

Homeowners whose property has been damaged or destroyed will often look to their insurance for relief. Unfortunately, property owners may receive little relief from the insurance company.

While some insurance companies will dispute or deny a valid claim, others will try to get the property owner to settle an insurance claim for far less than what the claim is worth.

Common Insurance Claim Disputes

There are two common approaches insurance companies will use to dispute an owners’ claim, disputes related to the amount of damages and disputes over policy coverage.

Disputes over the amount of damages often stem from the insurance company’s investigation into your claim. An appraiser may undervalue or law-ball their estimate, which leaves the owner footing the repair bill. It’s important to document personal property and damages with pictures, video and documentation of your property value.

When an insurer dispute policy coverage, they are simply telling you that your losses are not covered under your policy. Flooding, mold and termite damage are typically covered under separately policies or under an addendum. In some cases an insurer may deny a claim if the loss occurred prior to the policy inception or if the loss was caused by normal wear and tear.

Sometimes though, a property owners’ claim is covered by the policy, but the insurance company just doesn’t want to pay.
