This Week In Wildfire
This Week In Wildfire is a series of articles intended to teach you how to keep your home wildfire safe. Thousands of wildland fires occur every year in California. In 2017 alone, California experienced 9,133 total fires; in 2018 there were 8,527 fires; in 2019 there were 7,860 total fires. In 2020, the wildfires will inevitably continue to plague California. We want to help you prepare your home for these fires so you do not suffer from devastating losses. Live Oak Wildfire Solutions has been studying wildfires for over 25 years. We work with fire departments and communities to diligently investigate why certain homes survive wildfires and others don’t. Over 25 years of dedicated research, we have found proven methods to keep homes safe from wildfire destruction. Now, we intend to teach you what we learned.
This Week In Wildfire will also feature trends in the fire insurance industry. Did you, or someone you know, recently lose their fire insurance coverage? You’re not alone. Insurers are aware of the dangerous threats posed by wildland fires. Many of them don’t want to take on the liability. Therefore, they try to dissuade homeowners from their fire insurance policies by raising the rates drastically or by dropping fire insurance plans all together. The caveat is if you are a homeowner, you are legally required to have fire insurance. So what’s the game plan? This week in wildfire will inform you about the trends in the insurance industry and teach you how to attain an affordable fire insurance plan.
