Understanding The Fujita Scale Of Tornadoes

By Maryl Joop


As fall rolls around, it may be time to reassess your homeowner's insurance policy in Colorado. There are a lot of people that do not take enough time throughout the year to read through their existing insurance policies and ensure they are getting what they should from insurance.

Umbrella insurance is not insurance for your umbrella. (Although surely there is someone out there who would buy insurance for their umbrella...) Umbrella insurance covers costs above and beyond the limits of your existing insurance.

First, you should be sure that you are working with an insurance agency that you know you are going to be able to trust. Find an insurance broker that has positive reviews and that you feel comfortable talking with about what you need and what you want from your insurance.

Make sure that you schedule a meeting about once a year to go over your insurance policy and make sure it is still sufficient and is not providing excess coverage. Finding this balance can be difficult, but it will be well worth the time that you spend doing your research.

An F3 gets pretty serious with 158 to 206 mile an hour winds, considered "severe damage."

First, consider your situation in life. What job do you have? Could you be a target for an angry customer, client, or business partner? Does your work involve controversial issues? Could you be personally held responsible for work-related incidents? If it looks like you walk a fine edge with your work, it might be a good decision to invest in an umbrella policy.

If you have made any large purchases or you have added anything of value to your home in recent years, you should be sure that your home owner's insurance policy reflects that. Don't be afraid to work with an insurance broker as you are figuring out what you do and do not need.

Third, what is your family like? Ask the same questions listed above about close relatives for whom you might be financially responsible. But also, think about what kind of financial support your family could provide if you got in trouble.

As you are looking into your insurance policy it is also important that you start shopping around with other insurance companies. Don't be afraid to compare your policy with other companies and get to know your policy in relation to those that are offered elsewhere.

Your insurance is something that you will count on during the hardest times. Make sure that you put enough time and effort into finding the insurance policy that is the best fit for you.
