Spring is arriving in Kansas, and severe weather along with it. If it has been several seasons since you last reviewed your homeowners insurance policy, the next round of storms could bring an unwelcomed surprise. Inflation and rising construction costs, along with gaps in coverage could mean that your home is underinsured. Insurance carriers reported over 30,000 claims in Kansas during the peak of last year’s storm season. It is important to review your current coverage to ensure that your home is sufficiently covered.

“Severe weather damage is a threat to Kansans every year. If you wait until the next thunderstorm or flood strikes it may be too late to protect your property,” Kansas Insurance Commissioner Vicki Schmidt said. “Now is the time to check with your insurance agent to make sure your homeowners policy provides adequate coverage before storm season arrives.”

September is Life Insurance Awareness Month. Would your family face a financial hardship if you were to pass away unexpectedly? Overall, 41% of Americans say they don’t have sufficient life insurance coverage. Many underserved markets have even greater insurance needs, including:

44% of women believe they have a life insurance coverage gap
45% of Asian Americans say they need more coverage
47% of Millennials live with a life insurance coverage gap
48% of Black Americans acknowledge they don’t have enough life insurance
50% of LGBTQ+ Americans say they need (or need more) coverage
This is increasingly critical since LIMRA research shows that 4 in 10 families say they would face financial hardship within six months if the primary wage earner died. For 1 in 5, it would be within just one month.
