Last week we introduced the three types of rental property insurance policies; fire, Dwelling Policy Form 1, and Dwelling Policy Form 3 (see http://50.87.248.161/~wiseinsu/3-types-rental-property-insurance-policies/). I’d like to build on that in this week’s post with a look at the coverage that should be on a Form 3 Dwelling Policy in order to provide the best coverage for the property owner.
Over the past several weeks, I’ve had discussions and quote requests from 4 small business owners in the Dallas / Fort Worth area. Each of them is living the dream having started and building a successful small business through all of the hard work and long hours it takes to build a successful company. Each of the businesses are in different industries, but what was remarkable is their similarity as it related to their commercial insurance. Their commercial insurance coverage didn’t adequately protect them.
On the afternoon of April 17, 2013 a fire broke out at the West Fertilizer Company in West, Texas, a town located a little more than an hour’s drive south of Dallas and Fort Worth on Interstate 35. The first responders to the fire included 10 members of the West Volunteer Fire Department, along with 2 other people who pitched in to help. At 7:50 that evening, an explosion rocked the West Fertilizer Company killing 15 people including the 12 people who responded to the fire and injuring about 200 people in town.
