Hurricane Damage and Rebuilding
Hurricane damage from Hermine is just the latest in a series of natural disasters. There has also been the terrible flooding in Louisiana and unrelenting fires in Canada and California. While offering our thoughts and prayers to the victims of these disasters, we want to contribute in the best way we know how.
When your home has been severely damaged or even lost, it is hard to feel anything positive can come out of it. But we believe that clouds really can have a silver lining.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development recently published an American Housing Survey. Which revealed the median age of homes in the United States is 35 years old. The northeast had some of the oldest median ages between 50 and 61 years old.
The design and construction technology for homes has been vastly improved over the past 40 years. Not to mention a home’s heating and cooling systems. The greatest advancements coming in just the last 10 years. Most of the homes damaged or lost entirely in the recent disasters were built with older and inefficient technology. The vast majority of homeowners who are victims of these tragic events are very resilient and will rebuild.
Hurricane Damage Can be a Hidden Opportunity
