FORCED INTO SUSPENDING BUSINESS OPERATIONS
U.S.A land of the free. We have freedom to choose where we live. Free to choose what we do for a living. Well not really, only if the insurance companies and government agencies agree.
I have run into some problems over the last couple of months regarding insurance coverage. I have carried homeowners insurance and business insurance ( my business garage is attached to my house). Well after 7 years my insurance company decided they don’t like what I’m doing anymore. I have had no claims on either policy , they just don’t like it. So they dropped my insurance. I guess they aren’t “ On my side “.
I have searched many different companies and I can’t find a new insurance company that wants to pick up my homeowners and business insurance. They won’t insure my home because of the business. So I’m stuck. I have to have homeowners because I have a mortgage.
Fortunately this is not my only source of income. I have a full time job on top of this but it’s just a paycheck. Running my business, doing restorations, paint and body work is my passion. I’ve been doing both jobs for years now in the hope of being able to go full time with my business. So this really is a great blow to me.
I’m forced into suspending my business operations. I hope to be able to find another building and start back up but until then I cannot take on any work. I want to thank all of my customers over the years and I really do hope that I can find a way to start back up.
