    Insurance is cheap. Theres no excuse to not have it. It sucks that people lost things that are irreplaceable but thats a different story. The focus is on the fact that if you didnt have insurance you deserve no sympathy for any financial hardship or where youre going to live.

    You do not need an itemized list of anything for a total loss claim on your insurance (or any claim), at least i know i dont. All you need is a list or pictures for you to remember what to include. Id be pumped if i got to make a total loss claim on my renters.

    When you have things of value, you insure them. Its common sense and its called being responsible. You have nobody to whine to if you lost your flat screen but couldnt afford a few dollars every month to protect it. Priorities

      i have renters insurance for a set amount. Basically i say how much i want to be insured for, and then my premium is based on that. So i say, i want insurance for 20k worth of shit, and they say, here is what you pay.

          you have well over 20k in assets sitting in your apartment? Why would you have that much money in crap laying around but still be renting an apartment?

              Not to derail the thread (joking) but does anyone have an update on what is going on at the building... how bad the damage was and what not. Curious, since coverage was all over the place when it was burning but there hasn't been much since. Just wondering if anyone got hurt or whatnot. Had some friends that used to live there, glad they got out last year.

                You can insure to higher amounts...it just costs more.

                      I have my apartment insured for $20k if it was a total loss, i get a check for $20k, regardless of if I had $100 of stuff in there or $40k worth. I pay $12 a month for it, and I probably average about $12k max worth of stuff, and that is replacement cost. Total amount of what i would buy back is probably $8k at the most. Now if it got broken into and my coputers or TV stolen, yes I have that stuff inventoried and the list stored in 2 diffenent locations. You see, i learned how to be responsible when I got my own place, so I wouldnt have to go crying to anyone if it all went to shit

                          still working on finding a cause.
                          1st floor damage isn't bad, 2nd floor is so-so because the ceiling was pulled down in some places, 3rd floor is limited access (fire only).

                          I think I pay in the neighborhood of $150/year for renters insurance but that includes specific coverage for a couple other things (camera in particular) to cover any damaged caused by anything anywhere.

                            As dubbsy said,
                            When I was there taking pic's the firefighters that I were talking to tell me that:
                            1st floor is almost 100 percent intact with very minor water damage
                            2nd floor is about 90 percent intact with 1- maybe 2 total loss apartments and the rest have some smoke and water damage, and are a mess from insulation and falling ceilings.
                            3rd floor is almost a 100 percent loss.

                            car garage had 18 inches of water but all cars were driven out.
                            sounds like 3 or four dogs a cat and a bird were killed
                            no people were hurt.
                            two firefighters were trapped, and rescued unhurt.

                            As for the insurance thing, I don't think people are looking for handouts. Minus people like Grr, most people in Fargo/Moorhead are kind hearted people (North Dakota and Minn for that matter.) and will give weather they are asked or not.
                            That has been my experience anyway.

                                      lol was just gonna post that.

                                      grr thinks thats fair probably. boo fucking hoo to those having to spend a measly 500 dollars per dvr.

                                      they shouldnt need dvrs since almost everythings available on the internet, right? what a bunch of losers those guys are who have to pay that up.

                                        As if they're not the douche bags of cable/internet service already.
                                        You got to love corporate BS, you're no more than a number to them.
                                        I also love how they make it sound like they're the victim.

                                          grr thinks thats fair probably. boo fucking hoo to those having to spend a measly 500 dollars per dvr.

                                          they shouldnt need dvrs since almost everythings available on the internet, right? what a bunch of losers those guys are who have to pay that up.

                                          lol@$500 for their DVR's. I bet they cost cableone ~$50. They are on ebay for $99.

                                          At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
