Navigating Loss of Use - Knowing Your Options for Temporary Housing
Introduction
When damage forces you out of your home, finding temporary housing can feel daunting. Section D of most homeowner's insurance policies includes Additional Living Expenses (ALE), covering reasonable costs of living elsewhere. Texas Corporate Homes (TCH) specializes in insurance-friendly temporary housing, designed to help displaced homeowners navigate the process smoothly, offering not only peace of mind but also expertise in handling ALE claims.
For Homeowners: Comfortable, Convenient Housing Without Surprises
When ALE coverage activates, homeowners need a straightforward, reliable solution. TCH provides fully furnished single-family homes that go beyond typical hotel stays or short-term rentals. Here’s how we cater to the unique needs of policyholders:
- Flexible and Daily Billing: Unlike traditional rentals, we bill per day rather than per month, which aligns with ALE claims that often cover costs on a daily basis. This flexibility allows homeowners to extend their stay without extra moving or disruption if repair timelines change.
- Transparent Pricing Structure: TCH offers an all-in-one rate, which often costs less than piecemeal accommodations like hotels or Airbnb rentals, where hidden fees can drive up expenses. Here’s a typical breakdown showing how TCH offers savings:
- Hotel Room/STR: $150+/day
- Airbnb Charges: 10%+
- Pet Boarding: Dog ($70/day), Cat ($50/day)
- ALE Mileage Reductions: Staying within 10 minutes of home can save $10+/day on mileage
- Home-Like Environment: Unlike cramped hotel rooms, TCH properties offer ample space, including private bedrooms, kitchens, and laundry facilities, which provide comfort and a sense of stability for families.
- Pet-Friendly Options: With pet-friendly homes, families avoid the added expense of boarding pets, keeping everyone under one roof.
For Insurance Adjusters: Seamless Housing Solutions and Cost Control
For adjusters, finding appropriate housing that minimizes the ALE claim amount is essential. TCH is experienced in working with insurance companies to ensure policyholders receive suitable, cost-effective accommodations that streamline the ALE process:
- Lower Costs Compared to Hotels or Airbnb: Our all-inclusive rate is competitively priced and avoids added fees like cleaning and administrative charges. This results in overall savings for the ALE claim.
- Simplified, Transparent Costs: We break down charges into a clear per-day rate, making it easy for adjusters to manage expenses within policy limits. Homeowners know what to expect from the start, so there are no surprise costs or last-minute changes.
- Assured Availability and Extensions: TCH guarantees the flexibility to extend stays without the risk of double bookings or forced moves, which reduces the administrative burden on adjusters and avoids disrupting families.
- Location Accessibility: With properties in major Texas metros, we have homes within 10 minutes of most addresses, minimizing ALE mileage claims and allowing families to stay close to their community.
Why Texas Corporate Homes Offers More Value Than Traditional Options
Compared to other housing solutions like hotels or Airbnb, TCH’s midterm rentals deliver a more predictable, cost-effective, and family-oriented experience. Here’s why:
- Hotels: While hotels are often the default choice, they offer limited space and amenities, especially for families. The per-day cost also tends to be significantly higher than TCH’s rate and lacks amenities like full kitchens and in-unit laundry.
- Airbnb: Airbnb rentals often include added fees, seasonal pricing surges, and a lack of control over extension options. TCH eliminates these issues with all-inclusive rates and flexible stays tailored to insurance needs.
