<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#0E2841">I am working on an estate in which Decedent’s home was completely destroyed by fire. The Beneficiaries (surviving children) just received a payoff proposal from
the homeowner’s insurance company.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#0E2841">I am definitely not an expert in determining the cost of rebuilding a home, but the proposal from the insurance company seems low.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#0E2841">I am hoping that someone out there has worked with an appraiser who has dealt with this situation. There is money available to pay for a review of the proposal,
an additional appraisal if necessary, and negotiating with the insurance company’s adjuster, if needed. The property is located in Skagit County.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
