Q: I will be away from my home for an extended period. Am I covered?
An empty home can be a higher risk. Why you ask? Damage can go unnoticed for a longer period, which can increase the severity of damages. If a pipe were to burst, the water damage could go undetected for a longer duration which in turn could result in far more extensive damage.
This is why an empty home can void a home insurance policy. In order to minimize the risk, insurance companies often require a home to be checked in on every 48-72 hours. The exact period of time varies by insurer, so be sure you know what your home insurance policy requires by contacting us to review all the options with you.
