What Goes Wrong on Kings Park Claims
On the Sound side, bluff erosion and wind off the water are the main risks. Homeowners policies generally exclude earth movement and erosion, but wind, falling trees and water intrusion during the same storm may still be covered, and the cause of each item of damage matters.
Check your address on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center to see whether your Kings Park home is in a mapped flood zone, and keep your flood and homeowners policies together.
What Homes in Kings Park Are Like
The typical Kings Park house is a mid-century home that has been updated more than once. That history matters on a claim, because insurers may price repairs to builder-grade materials even when the owner has since installed better flooring, cabinets or windows.
