PROTECT YOUR ASSETS WITH AN INSURANCE APPRAISAL
An insurance appraisal provides a current and accurate estimate of property reconstruction costs in the event of a total loss.
The insurance appraisal determines the Replacement Cost Value (RCV) or Total Insurable Value (TIV). The valuation is used by insurance brokers to place property insurance. It’s kind of like having insurance on your insurance – how can you be certain that your insurance is adequate without a proper valuation?
Why you need an appraisal
All property owners should obtain an insurance appraisal by a professional insurance appraiser.
An up-to-date insurance appraisal has two important benefits:
- Protects you in the case of a total loss by ensuring you have sufficient insurance coverage.
- Prevents you from over-paying on insurance premiums.
