Ah yes, I remember that thread that you started awhile ago. I don't care about how fire-resistant a house can be. If it's in a fire zone, it's in a fire zone. period. No house (unless made out of concrete completely) is fireproof. I guess the issue I have is as a rental, financially 4s doesn't make sense it seems.
But even if the dollars do line up in the future, I'm just wondering if there are others that would consider 4s as rental, given the past firestorms we had, and the risk these communities are in this firezone….because I don't think it's the last firestorm we will see.
I'm wondering how insurance deals with rental income lost from a firestorm. I know that insurance companies were paying homeowners loss of use compensation from the fires, but wondering how rental properties were compensated (if at all).
