Property Claim Reporting :(online
reporting form)
What do I do if a property loss is sustained at my
chapter?
- Notify the fire & emergency
services and obtain medical attention for any injured parties. Notify the local
police if any laws have been broken.
- Obtain temporary housing for any
displaced residents of the fraternity. Your insurance contract should
provide coverage for this cost if you purchased loss of rents & extra
expense protection. Keep records and receipts of expenses for your claim.
- Do what is reasonable and necessary
to protect covered property from further damage: (i.e. hire contractors to
board up windows, clean up standing water, put tarp over hole in roof, and
overall mitigate your losses). One provider of professional services in
loss control is ServiceMaster Clean, they can be contacted at
1-800-RESPOND or www.servicemasterclean.com
Protecting the facility from further damage is a requirement of most
property insurance policies and reasonable expenses incurred are covered by the
policy. Keep accurate records of expenses.
- Notify your insurance agent of the
loss as soon as possible. When reporting a loss, the following information
is needed:
□
Insurance Policy number
□
Date and
time of loss
□
Type and
location of loss
□
Estimated
extent of damage
□
Name and
number of local contact
- If feasible, separate damaged from
undamaged property and make inventory of the damaged items. Additionally,
take photos of the damaged property once the facility and general area is
secured and close proximity is feasible. If you have receipts for the
original purchases of the damaged items, include them with the inventory
list.
- Cooperate with the insurance adjuster in
the investigation and settlement of the claim.
