When house hunting in Colorado, it is important to know that certain areas are more at risk for extreme weather, such as hail storms and wildfires, than others. This factor affects not only your family's health and safety but also your home's insurability, which can impact your ability to attain home financing.
Home-buying can be confusing, but there are ways to stay on the path to home ownership.
Tip # 1: Research the risk factors in the neighborhood and home that you are interested in buying
Tip # 2: Contact your insurance provider to ensure the home is insurable before negotiating your contract.
Tip # 3: Plan for higher deductibles than in past years
Tip # 4: Ensure your insurance will cover the costs of replacing major ticket items in your home.
