How To Use Building Codes For Higher Insurance Approvals

You say the insurance company should pay for it because of building code. WHICH BUILDING CODE? Let’s break that down. It actually matters a great deal. MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT! 😉

Believe it or not, “The Code Game” is a lot less complicated than you may think. We only really need to focus on a few codes from a few code books. And these codes can be accessed now online for free. Easily. There really is no need to let this stuff go over your head, like I used to do.

You can do this! YOU have what it takes to master these codes and use them as your secret weapon to win higher approval amounts.

In this video we discuss the various versions of the International Code Council (ICC) building codes: The International Building Code (IBC), The International Residential Code (IRC) and the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). We also talk about how it works, city adoptions, etc.

How To Get A Supervisor To Remove The Adjuster

TRUE STORY and REAL PHONE CALL…

A Farmers adjuster tried using bullying and intimidation tactics to lowball his estimates on two different jobs. He threatened to send other contractors – his contractors – to do the job for less, if we were unable to work with his numbers (listen to his voice message).

This can be frustrating and discouraging. It can feel like you’re hitting a brick wall and you may be tempted to just accept the adjuster’s numbers and move on. But DON’T… Be willing to stick with it. Persevere! Put in the time and the effort. And PUT IN THE WORK!!!

T.he G.rind I.ncludes F.ridays!!!

Engineer Meeting – RAW VIDEO

We were out meeting with an engineer, sent by the insurance company. Notice how he started talking to me about coverage and policy. However, neither of us were permitted to talk about those subjects. But also notice how he conceded that the whole roof is totaled by hail. And of course… it’s on film.

The adjuster AND AGENT were also there (high value client). The engineer then broke the news to them. The adjuster soon came over and told me that they are approving the roof.

BOOM!

Commercial Adjuster Appointment – Actual Footage

This is ACTUAL FOOTAGE of how I handled a commercial adjuster appointment today. Watch all the way to the end… that’s where the good stuff is. And who knows? Maybe you will learn something. Or maybe you can teach me a few things. Afterall, we are all #Practitioners! 😉 (Turn sound ON! 🔊🔊🔊)

I met this adjuster over a year ago when he was with Amica on another deal. And here we are again. It pays to be a diplomat with these guys. (Link to that video in comments 😂😂😂).

The outside adjuster isn’t usually where you need to make your whole case. Just get them to apply coverage and cut a check. Gently nudge them to include as much as they can.Then supplement to the inside… AFTER the outside adjuster is off of it and BEFORE the build. You will have faster and better results, and these guys will appreciate you for it.

Oh, and one more thing… I never EVER discuss policy and coverage with these guys. I stay in my lane at all times.

Keep grinding! 👊😎

How To Turn A Simple Repair Into $400,000

How to turn a simple wall repair to a full roof replacement. Total project close to $400k.
Two engineers and two adjusters later… they agreed to apply coverage for the wall.
We came to terms on scope. We tore the wall off. But if you replace the wall, the roof has to be replaced. They sent a building consultant. We educated him on building codes. Now estimate for full roof and interior.
