Disasters like Tropical Storm Irene, the wildfires in southern New Jersey and the recent apartment building fire in Woodbridge all call attention to the vital role that homeowners and renter’s insurance plays in helping consumers rebuild their homes and replace their property following a loss.
The New Jersey Departments of Banking and Insurance (DOBI), Community Affairs (DCA) and Environmental Protection (DEP) are reminding Jersey homeowners who live in or near forests to carefully maintain and review their insurance coverage, to maintain their properties with wildfire protection in mind and take common sense precautions while enjoying the outdoors during wildfire season.
