Introduction

When a loved one passes away and their home goes through probate, the last thing most people think about is insurance. But this mistake can cost the estate thousands of dollars.

Without the right coverage, accidents like a broken pipe, fire, or vandalism can go unnoticed and leave the estate fully responsible for the damages.

In this video, Ashlie explain why it’s crucial to check the insurance policy immediately when you become a personal representative or executor. You’ll learn how some policies automatically cancel after the death of the policyholder or if a payment is missed.

At Horizon Real Estate, we help executors, trustees, and families navigate these difficult details. If you need a referral to an insurance company in San Diego that provides vacant homeowner’s policies, we’d be happy to connect you. Don’t wait until it’s too late. Protect the estate today!
