<p>[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 4577034, member: 30"][USER=78502]@frosty123[/USER] - I had to itemize my parents' home after Hurricane Katrina. I quickly photographed everything in every drawer and cabinet because the mold was so toxic. Their policy covered $50k of possessions. The adjuster told me I'd have to list ALL of their items because insurance only factors about 1/3 the actual value, so I had to come up with $150k in personal losses for their home. They actually did lose that much, lost nearly everything, so it wasn't a problem but very very tedious. They were very elderly and could never even return to see their damaged home. I wound up selling the house cheap in as is condition and because I'd counted every book and q-tip, they wound up receiving a settlement with that sale price equivalent to what they would have received had they sold the house undamaged. Good you are helping your parents with this.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
