A common problem among people who have homeowners insurance is that they may not know the limits of that policy. The standard home insurance may not protect against flooding, wildfires, or landslides. Living in California means that we face these risks and more, time and time again. Without the proper insurance policy that damage to the home may be an expense that will not be covered. Landslides are not the most common disaster out there, but they do happen. Especially near the coast along the edges of the valley and anywhere with steep mountains with loose or weakened rock. This year has also been really good for rain which also increases the chances of landslides.
