South Nyack Fires
Potential Insurance Concerns Arise

Blazing flames rushed a South Nyack residence last Thursday. When the multi-family home on Brookside Avenue caught fire, one tenant escaped through flames. After a neighbor assisted, they met Orangetown Police, Nyack and Piermont Fire Fighters.

The Rockland Journal News article indicates the resident lacked Renter's Insurance. How much to repurchase furniture, clothing, mattresses and electronics? The Landlord's insurance only covers the house's structure and the owner's appliances. Therefore both parties in a landlord/tenant relationship should carry appropriate insurance.

Liability hits next. Investigations indicate teenagers may be responsible. If this holds true, the teen's parents ought to review their Homeowners Insurance. Parents have liability for children. I advise clients with adolescents, even if they're god's little angels, to carry umbrella insurance. Umbrella insurance, excess liability above homeowners insurance, protects all assets from bombshell law suits.

Purchasing a home can be overwhelming. But don't brush aside proper insurance.
