Setting up a self-insured fund requires quite a bit of state regulations, etc It also includes errors and omission insurance liability insurance accounting requirements and audits, etc
All homeowner's policies are required by law to have catastrophic ground collapse. What I am referring to as secondary (my words, not the insurance co.) is the additional sinkhole insurance that you may currently have. Some have mention that there is a high deductible associated with it. I was told by Allstate that they believe sinkhole insurance will soon become a thing of the past.

So, I'm saying this would be a great solution if sinkhole insurance were no longer offered.
