Chatbrat,
It does not matter whether the dwelling is occupied or not. It is almost always how quickly the call to 911 is made once the fire starts that determines the outcome. If people are not home or they are asleep it will affect the outcome. It also depends on where the fire starts and what kind of flammable material is nearby.
