Prepared For Hurricane Irma & Other CAT Events

While we continue to work with adjusters on housing for policyholders displaced by Hurricane Harvey, a new hurricane, Irma, is expected to cause catastrophic damage in Florida and send tropical-storm-force winds, heavy rainfall and storm surges up the East Coast.

This won't be easy for you or your policyholders. So, we want you to know that we are closely monitoring this situation and are here to help by finding temporary housing for impacted policyholders.

At Housing HQ, we will support you by...

1. WATCHING FORECASTS, RAMPING UP ACCORDINGLY
We're tracking the course of Irma closely and, when it touches down, we will have multiple reps on call–even if it's nighttime or the weekend.

2. RESEARCHING HOUSING OPTIONS IN ADVANCE OF STORM
Because we're keeping an eye on the storm, we will review possible sources of lodging in advance for areas in the storm's path, which include Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas. We can even work with you directly. Let us know your projected exposure in an area, and we can be ready with housing options that can accommodate the affected families.

3. FINDING HOUSING FOR ADJUSTERS
As an adjuster, you can use our services to find you and your team lodging (hotels for short stays, houses or apartments for longer ones) and workspaces, such as on-site meeting spaces and temp offices. We'll handle getting you set up onsite, freeing you to better take care of your policyholders.

WILDFIRES: FIND HOUSING FOR THOSE AFFECTED
Have the wildfires in the Western United States destroyed the homes of your policyholders? Contact us and we'll use our database of US hotels and temporary homes to find them housing quickly.

HOUSING STORY
"We want to thank you and your whole team for being our advocates and negotiators. Your advice during our displacement was invaluable. Encouraging us to choose to stay in a rental space that we could live in for the long haul was the best choice for our family. You made a very difficult year a bit less crazy"

When a family of five's house was devastated by a fire caused by a CAT storm, the father let us know how grateful he was for moving them from a hotel into a temporary home—where they lived for almost a year. Even more, because a rental home is more cost effective than a hotel, we ended up saving the insurance company money as well!
