Get Out From Underneath Your Unrepaired Sinkhole House
 Is your unrepaired sink hole house for sale?  Do you live in Florida?  Then I would love to talk to you and make you an offer on your home, one I am sure will be relief to your ears.  Sitting on a home that is sitting on a sinkhole can bring much unwanted grief to a homeowner, however if you let me, I can relieve that burden from your shoulders. 

Sink holes can develop over a period of time or as quick as overnight while you sleep. 
Florida is known for having the highest amount of sinkholes over any other state in the United States leaving homeowners in Florida risk sitting right smack dab on top of a sinkhole.  Being so vulnerable, it is nice to know that if you find yourself in such a position that there is a viable way out.  Insurance companies often would rather settle on the homeowner’s policy rather then pay out to have the necessary repairs done.  This again leaves the homeowner standing alone in a sinking hole. 

The surface of a sink hole may develop very slowly and only appear as a minor dip in the yard or like the ground is settling somewhat around your foundation.  Other times you may wake or come home from work to find the side of your house collapsed in or a deep carter in the middle of your lawn.  Sinkholes can range in size from a few feet to several hundred feet wide.  They can sink as far as 150 feet, are often funnel shaped with steep sides and can the base will be covered with debris from caving in or can have a water base.  This is why it is strongly advised not to try to investigate your sinkhole and to have only a profession do so.  In Winter Park Florida back in 1981, a sinkhole was so large that it engulfed a house, several cars, part of a community pool and two businesses, and a large section of road.  Damage was estimated to be 2 million dollars.  Even when a sinkhole is fixed, if not fixed properly and the house cleared by a reputable insurance company, a homeowner can have a very difficult time reselling their home.  As well, if not fixed properly the sinkhole may reappear.  

 Signs to know if your home is sitting on or near a potential sinkhole are if you notice fencepost or trees sinking, slumping, or falling.  If you notice your foundation sinking or unexplainable cracks in your foundation, walls, or floors it is very possible you have caught a sinkhole in formation.  Your floors may also begin to be off kilt.  Often times the vegetation around sinkholes will start to wilt and die out, your well water can also be discolored or begin to taste off.  If you do not want to go through the costly expense of repairing the sinkhole, and the damage caused by the sinkhole we would love to talk to you and relieve you of your burden.  You do not need to be stuck with a home that can cost you an outrageous amount to make livable only to worry still if one day you will be again experiencing the same nightmare.  If your unrepaired sinkhole house is for sale give us a call, and let us help you sleep easier at night.   Call 813 545 5263

 

 

Question and Answers

Q: Once a person has decided to file a sink hole claim and been paid, how do you resell these houses?  Are they ever insurable again against sink holes?  Do you disclose this to the new buyers?

A: Once a claim is been filed on a house, the property becomes somewhat stigmatized. After a claim has been paid, the home is definitely stigmatized. The property can be sold repaired or un-repaired. I have done both numerous times. If the home has been repaired in accordance with the engineering report, it has a reasonable chance of being insured for sinkhole damage. The insurance coverage for all homes in our area is a very dynamic situation. The insurance companies are trying to have sinkhole coverage as an additional coverage similar to a wind policy. A homeowner pays for sinkhole coverage separately. The State of Florida has not decided what it wants to do.  A seller must disclose that there was a sinkhole claim filed and or paid. No big deal for me because I disclose everything.
