Help Us Avoid Asking Questions
Are we asking too many questions? Here are some of the most common questions our underwriters and associate underwriters ask when receiving endorsements for various changes to policies. Providing information to these questions when sending in the request will help to insure a quick turnaround time!
- Adding additional insureds – what is their relationship and interest to the insured? Does it change the exposure?
- Address changes to an auto policy (CAP) – did they change the registration?
- Mortgage changes – which location? Which structures or all?
- Change of Address – does this affect the mortgagee and/or billing? If primary dwelling, is the occupancy the same?
Just a reminder: When an insured requests to add an additional insured, make sure they understand that there is no coverage unless the named insured is negligent. Additional insureds can benefit in having their own separate policy. Talk to your underwriter if you have any questions or concerns. We are here to help!
