If your house
burns down —
it is still going to cost you
lot more than you probabl
think it will to rebuild it c
buy a new house.
what your house cost you
the first place, maybe yes
values have risen grektly
recent years. Think: hi
plicate it tomorrow?
If you are like the average
home owner, you are still
probably way under-insured
and should talk to us mighty
soon (maybe this minute)
about increasing the amount
of your fire insurance cover-
age.
