September is National Preparedness Month! With the U.S. homeowners insurance market enduring a $15.2 billion underwriting loss - the worst in more than 20 years - insurers should look for ways to help prepare homeowners, so they can prevent issues before they occur. While there are catastrophic events that can’t always be prevented, such as hurricanes, natural wildfires and floods - homeowners can take steps to reduce their risk of damage. Do your policyholders know what to do if a wildfire or hurricane is on the way? We can help. vipHomeLink’s Homeowner Engagement and Claims Prevention platform puts homeowner guidance from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), FEMA, the NFPA, and many other leading authorities - right into your policyholders’ hands. We’ll also send property-specific notifications, so your policyholders know exactly what to do and when to do it. Explore what our “predict & prevent” solution can do for your company.

Homes in different states have different needs, and the steps to safeguard a home in Colorado from wildfire won’t help a home vulnerable to tornadoes in Kansas. (It might help a home in Texas, though!) Delivering the right safety measure, at the right time, and with proactive mitigation techniques directly to your policyholders, right in the palm of their hand, can help protect their families and their homes, reducing the risk of a claim.

How can you help to keep your policyholders’ wandering eyes from straying at renewal? Engagement is key. Many insurance carriers lack the ability to connect on a personal level with their policyholders. After all, 73% of homeowner have made at least one upgrade to their home since moving in, and another 42% completed an upgrade and didn’t inform their insurance carrier or agent. You want your policyholders to tell you when they improve the value and safety of their home, not just when something bad happens. We can help. vipHomeLink’s Homeowner Engagement platform provides insurers with a direct line to their policyholders, connecting your brand with them several times each month. We provide your policyholders with a home companion to help them make important improvements or complete maintenance, so they can prevent costly claims. Plus, your policyholders engage with your brand regularly and see you as a trusted partner in their homeownership journey. Your relationship status with policyholders doesn’t have to be complicated. Let us help you reaffirm your commitment to each other. Book a meeting with our team today: https://bit.ly/3WY8j1F

“They don’t build them like they used to.” This is true with many homes, but unfortunately, older homes require more maintenance and upkeep to keep them livable and safe. Almost 9% of all homes built before 1940 are said to have inadequate living conditions, compared to just under 4% of homes built in the 1990s. Homeowners have been trying to keep pace with their aging homes. Spending on energy-related improvements such as HVAC, windows and doors, and roofing has tripled between 2001 and 2021, to $111 billion. But as you know best, #InsuranceCarriers also help when problems arise, acting as society’s “financial safety net.” Homeowners can help lower the costs of their home repairs by keeping up to date with maintenance. Better cared for older homes yield fewer unexpected repairs and fewer insurance claims, reducing your exposure to risk and helping to boost your profitability. Our Homeowner Engagement and Claims Prevention platform can help. Schedule a meeting with us to learn more: https://bit.ly/4cfg5dc
