It can be disturbing to know that the insurance estimate for the repairs of your house is lower than the estimate of expenditure given by the contractor. Right?

So how can an insurance estimate be lower than the contractor estimate? ACI Adjustments Group will today help you know the secrets that cause this to be.

So, let's see!!!

What can be the Reason Behind Insurance Estimates Being Lower than Contractor's Estimates

To investigate the reasons behind this, you will need to understand the way the insurance system of works in the US.

When you get property insurance, the policy states that in case of any damage to the property, it will be your job to prove the damages.

The reimbursement you get will be according to the damages proven to be done to the property. When you go for a claim, the insurance company suggests you to get the damages proven by a person of their recommendation.

Now this is the tricky part.

You are not obligated to get the services of the person suggested by the company. But most of the time people don't think much about it.

As the person suggested by the insurance company is on their payroll or otherwise obliged by them, they tend to formulate an estimate that heavily favors the insurance company.

What does this mean for you?

So you get an insurance estimate that cannot even cover the expenses estimated by the contractor. However, that's not the end of the world and Uncle Sam does care for your interests.

There's a way you can get the money it would actually take to repair your property. How? Let's see.

How Can you Get Insurance to Match the Contractor's Estimate - ACI Adjustments Group
