What do Texas, Louisiana, Florida, California, Colorado, North Carolina, Michigan, New Mexico, Nebraska and Georgia all have in common? According to a recent study, they are all at risk for the next natural disaster. But avoid the paper work with claim supplementing by working with Balance!
In fact, these top 10 states make up 80% of total disaster costs since 2014. The average claim in Texas over the past five years is $1,478 per household!
Severe storms that hit the Plains, Midwest, and Southeast cost insurance companies $4 billion dollars. That was just in May of this year alone! The total economic loss due to severe weather so far in 2020 are expected to top $4 billion dollars.
But hail and wind storms make up a smaller portion of the total disasters that have impacted policyholders this year. Severe flooding, wildfires and COVID-19 have also played a big role. Researchers are predicting 202 to break more records and be one of the most disaster-heavy years the U.S. has seen.

Partnering with Balance to assist in estimate writing and claim supplementing is one way to prevent the added paperwork from becoming disaster-heavy on your business.
