Is the LM fee schedule the new norm> 25863 3
Started by barryking
$227 for roofs up to $15k is a joke. I implore the IA's out there to refuse to work for these fees. If we stand together maybe LM and S will get the message. No roof assists. No help with Eagle View. No mileage. LM's fee schedule is an insult to our profession.

The dwelling is four stories tall with the attic included.

A friend has a Texas HOA Plus with endorsement HO470T. He had a water leak under the floor of his pier and beam dwelling causing damage to the finished wood flooring. The company denied the claim saying the leak was below the foundation. My question is where does the foundation of a pier and beam dwelling begin and end Is there any case law on this Does he have a chance in persuing this any further
Thanks

First how much depreciation should be shown in excel when you list a fire arm that was stolen. The fire arm is a Ruger 10/22 rifle with stainless barrel and composite stock that was purchased new in 2007. A new one at today's prices is exactly $247.00 out of the box.
Also a M77 Model Ruger 30-06 purchased new in 2004.Todays price is $460.
The insured says how can you depreciate firearms when they appreciate in value daily.
The insured has a HO3 policy with replacement cost coverage. ...

Coverage on roof with prior claim 10376 17
Started by Stormkat
We are selling my mother's home that had a prior hail claim that included replacement of the roof. It was only 3 years old. My mother did not replace it but did repair it. She never pursued the depreciation since she did not do the work.
Will the purchaser have problems getting another insurance company to cover the roof If they have a claim in the future, will the be prevented from getting a roof settlement
Thank you for your insight!

McMansions outlawed in Los Angeles 6737 1
Started by Leland
The Mayor of LA announced today that McMansions were being outlawed because they take up to much of the lot, are boxy, ugly, and ruin the neighborhood.
Let's say Mr. Smith has a 3800 sq ft. McMansion that burns down and he has $100,000.00 of code upgrade coverage.
The city says he can only rebuild 2800 sq feet, because they no longer allow a big box that goes so close to the property line.
Mr. Smith can get 3800 sq feet approved if he goes back with another design. The city will allow 3800 sq...
