Free Webinar: Wildfires Damage Property & Your Bottom Line

 
A Free Webcast Sponsored by Corelogic & Insurance Journal
 
 
Wildfires Damage Property & Your Bottom Line
Continued low wildfire activity in 2014 - When will it change?
 
With 63,345 fires and 3,587,561 acres burned, this past year ranks as the 2nd fewest wildfires over a span of more than 20 years and the 3rd lowest total amount of burned acreage in 15 years.1 This was a continuation of the low numbers for 2013, but that does not mean we should expect 2015 to be more of the same. The wildfire threat to residences and businesses still exists and homeowners and insurers should be concerned about future wildfire events.
 
Preparing for and mitigating against wildfires begins with understanding all of the essential and relevant conditions that contribute to residential wildfire risk exposure. On Tuesday, February 10, 2015 at 2 p.m. (EST) Dr. Thomas Jeffery, Sr. Hazard Scientist with CoreLogic, will be hosting a live wildfire webcast.
