Being Preparred for a Hurricane

Hurricane season is coming up quickly! Are you prepared?

1. The first thing you should do is make sure you have all the numbers you need to contact your homeowners insurance. Make sure you are insured for the replacement cost of your home. Make sure you know and understand how much your deductible is or could be. You need to know if it is a flat rate or a percentage.

2. Know if you have flood insurance or not. If you do not, ask how much it is for a year. You may decide it is worth it.

3. Make sure you have copies of all important documents, health insurance cards,cars insurance,ss cards,birth certificates and a COPY OF WHERE YOU SHOULD PAY YOUR MORTGAGE AND ANY HOUSE RECORDS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.. This is so important and many people forget it. You can never be to cautious in the important papers that you take.

4. If you plan on leaving, take copies of you child's medical recordsand any other family members(shots,medications,and any allergies) and school records as well as birth certificate. This will assist you in getting your child in temporary school or in seeking medical attention if needed.
