easy. you pay a lower premium for shit service. the coverages are there, but when you have an issue, you call an 800 number and talk to a random representative.

you have no specific agent assigned to you.

Don't forget they try to screw everyone over, whether they are a policy holder or someone who was hit by one.

tell the carrier the issues you are having and they will either recommend a body shop or allow you to choose another.

your agent should be able to help, if you have one.
Awesome. Thank you!

Yup, super low mileage and fully restore...I know it's a bit high but been looking at an E30 for a long time...E30 M3's are low $20K all the way up to $30K (fully restore, low mileage) nowadays...

I was told (by my agent) that since 2x4 now cost a lot more, my house won't be rebuilt. What do I need to look for to protect myself from continuingly rising raw material charges?

you agent told you you're house won't be rebuilt? whaaaaaat?

first, take a look at your policy. is it replacement cost value, or actual cash value? any coinsurance requirements? special causes of loss or basic? report back with some more inforamtion..

is the dwelling value enough to rebuild your home? if not, make your agent aware of this.
