Are you in compliance? The Insurance Community Center has just released more dates for you to get the required CE credit. Take this class with our online webinar format. You can attend by registering at http://insurancecommunityuniversity.com/ There are some modifications to the regulation that are effective 6/27/11 that clarify and expand some of its definitions which can be referenced at: http://www20.insurance.ca.gov/ 1. There has been confusion as to whether the regulation ONLY relates to Homeowners Insurance or also refers to other types of residential property wherefore a Homeowners Policy would not be written based on occupancy, ownership, or usage but would be written on a Dwelling Program instead based on such eligibility. The regulation now states: (1) "Homeowners' insurance policy" shall have the same meaning as "policy of residential property insurance" as defined in subdivision (a) of Insurance Code section 10104 2. There has been confusion as to whether the regulation applies to mobile homes; manufactured homes; renters; or condominium units. The regulation now states: Under section 10104) A "homeowners' insurance policy" does not include: (A) a tenant's policy; (B) a policy covering an individually owned mobile home and its contents; (C) a policy covering an individually owned manufactured home and its contents; (D) a renter's policy; or (E) a policy insuring an individually owned condominium unit that does not provide dwelling structure coverage. 3. There has been confusion as to what an “estimate” (e) "Estimate of replacement value" shall have the same meaning as "estimate of replacement cost" and means any estimate, statement, calculation, approximation or opinion, whether expressed orally or in writing, regarding the projected replacement value of a particular structure or structures. 4. Last but NOT least all Broker/Agents must be in compliance with Section 2695.182 for documentation. All individuals working with residential properties must review this section to set standard in their agency to comply with the regulation.
