Bella's Band-Aid Drive
From Team JAB  JABBERS, many of you have been captivated by Bella's story and have prayed for her recovery. She is a sweet ten-year-old girl who has been battling cancer for more than half of her life. Even though she is still fighting and undergoing treatments, Bella wants to help others. In honor of Childhood Cancer Awareness month, she has organized a Band-Aid drive for children at the hospital because something as small as a "fun" bandage can brighten their day. If you would like to help Bella's cause, please send an Amazon gift card HERE or mail a box of cheerful Band-Aids to Kim Rodriguez-Torres c/o Bella, 8092 NW 109 Lane, Parkland FL 33076. Thanks and Happy JABBING! |

The Insurance Police
By Ashley Cusack, EWM Realtors: REPLY  If you're a homeowner and insured with Citizens, this is for you! I've heard about many clients getting contacted by Citizens so they can re-inspect their homes to make sure the windstorm insurance premium credits are being properly assessed. Insurance credits are given on properties that are mitigated with opening protections like hurricane impact windows, hurricane shutters and newer roofs. Typically, third party inspection companies perform mitigation inspections verifying this type of information for insurance companies. Citizens uses the reports to determine premium credits for the policies. Citizens has found many reports weren't filled out correctly so they're cracking down and doing follow-up re-inspections. Unfortunately the Citizens' re-inspection usually yields different results, and premiums go up. This doesn't only apply to new homeowners either - people who have owned their homes 20+ years are getting called, and their insurance rates are suddenly increased! If you haven't been called yet, be prepared! To visit my website, click HERE.* |
