Sinkhole Strikes Again!

With Sinkholes becoming more prevalent, know how to protect yourself!


Is it just me or have we seen more sinkholes pop up in the last year or so?  Just today, we had another one in our area: http://www.wfmz.com/news/news-regional-newjersey/Sinkhole-opens-up-near-home/-/132518/9285294/-/f8yi3n/-/index.html

As Cliff on Cheers would say "Little known fact- but Sinkholes are NOT automatically covered under your Homeowners policy."  He'd be right!

Review your Homeowners policy and ask your agent for the cost to add Sinkhole Coverage.  It's good information to know.  You don't want to see what might be your most valuable asset drop into a hole leaving you with no way out.
