😱 I made my mother pay it!

I re-roofed my parents’ house in 2019.

  • And yes, they paid their deductible.

Why it matters: I still get the question every storm season.

  • ā€œDo I have to pay deductible?ā€

Reality check: Actually, you WANT TO pay it. (insert Jedi mind trick meme here šŸ¤“)

āš™ļø How it works:

Replacement cost =

Your deductible +

Insurance proceeds.

  • A contractor who waives your deductible

šŸ‘Ž Is cutting corners on your roof

šŸ‘Ž Is running a shady ****business

šŸ‘Ž Is committing a crime

šŸ‘Ž Is causing you to commit insurance fraud

āœ… For your Smart Homeowner list

  • Lower premiums —> higher deductibles
  • There’s no ā€œrightā€ way —> either pay more now or pay more later.
  • Choose the strategy that makes the most sense for you. 😁

Best,

Travis
