I do not mind paying for insurance but now my bill is increasing from $895 to $1200. I would like an expert opinion on whether this is something that I can forgo since risk of sinkhole is minimal.
Some people are buying it and others are not,
I live on Lopez Golf course and am not familiar with the risk of sinkholes in Chatham.
Some info for you. A search may reveal other threads talking about sinkholes on the Lopez golf course.
