"Now we're to the point where there's a cap on my insurance company, and the insurance company says they can only cover about 10 percent of what its going to cost," she explained. "It's going to cost between $100,000 and $200,000 to fix the backyard."

"Tennessee and Florida are the only two states that require insurance companies to offer sinkhole insurance. But Petersen doesn't have it. She says her insurance company is working with her to try to come up with a solution but she feels stuck.


"Its just going to get bigger and I don't have the money to fix the back yard."

Wanting to know what, exactly? The comments were not informative; just one person bashing another.
