Jim Hitt Unveils Fire Insurance Claim Tips for a Real Estate IRA
ATLANTA (PRWEB) October 27, 2017 -- One of the most devastating things to happen to an investment property is a fire. Not only are fires life-threatening, but they can do a tremendous amount of property damage, which involves the question of liability. Investors who consider real estate as part of their retirement nest egg are sometimes concerned about these liability issues and the potential of fires, even within a Real Estate IRA.
But there are ways to manage risk, according to Jim Hitt of American IRA in North Carolina. In a recent blog post at http://www.AmericanIRA.com, Jim Hitt pointed out that not only is it possible to take out fire insurance for a property within an IRA, but there are ways to maximize the potential for recovery success even after a fire.
According to the tips published by the blog, there is an average of $40,000 per insurance claim after fires. That suggests that not only is a lot of value recouped through these fires, but that the claims themselves become vital in the aftermath of fire damage.
Jim Hitt also argues that there are many other factors in recovery after a fire, such as professional cleanup and inspection, which should not be handled by the property owner directly, who usually does not possess the proper expertise. Many professional clean-up crews who specialize in this kind of clean-up can bring special equipment designed to mitigate the safety hazards.
“The idea of having such a large portion of your retirement nest egg go up in flames is obviously a sore subject for many investors, many of whom are already averse to risk,” said Jim Hitt. “The point with this post was to establish just how well investors can handle an insurance claim when there’s been a fire. With the proper steps taken, a Real Estate IRA can still be just as safe as any other type of investment. Even though there’s risk for any type of investment in retirement, mitigating that risk is easier than many investors might think.”
