WHICH STORY IS IN HERE? Strong earthquake is likely NW of Los Angeles during the next 24 hours. - 03/06 to 03/07 - https://t.co/56HHMIbdIn pic.twitter.com/DCzjXrN4Wp — EarthquakePrediction (@Quakeprediction) March 7, 2021 You might have missed or little-noticed the above social media tweet regarding a big seismic event predicted for Southern California during the past several days (March 6-7). Perhaps the only thing that specific earthquake predictions tell us is that you can’t predict the timing of earthquakes. Scientists say don't be fooled by a website that claims to predict earthquakes https://t.co/XiFsGCzOEm via @flipboard — Mike Foxworth (@ALTALOMAN) March 9, 2021 David Nabhan is an advocate who has been calling for the creation of an earthquake warning system for the US West Coast for the last two decades. He proposes an informal scheme whereby newspapers might publish higher probability advisories for elevated risks—and has taken that controversial debate public in man

What is disaster recovery ?   Why do governments treat HOAs as commercial entities rather than residential? Given that reality, are all other types insurance quotes for HOAs treated accordingly? Does a commercial-rate policy cost less than residential? For disaster recovery today or in the future, what are the options to pay recovery costs? ▶ Fire insurance is already provided to Cobblestone Canyon by the HOA and the premium is paid out of condo dues.  But flood insurance and earthquake insurance is not now provided. If steps to disaster recovery are required, current reserve funds would barely provide a downpayment to cover those costs, at least the costs of a major disaster, so Cobblestone homeowners could expect emergency assessments. Fire insurance with regard to earthquakes would only apply if a fire is prompted by an earthquake. Regarding an emergency assessment, loss assessment coverage may mitigate all or some of the emergency assessment which, like earthquakes, is totally un

NORTHRIDGE STORY   How has the threat of a large, Northridge-type quake made Californians more favorable to EQI? What percentage of CA condo owners have EQI? What percentage of CA HOA owners have EQI? Does the date  January 17, 1994 still ring a bell today, why? ▶ This question prompted the research and retention by TGMA of the former HARBRO Emergency Services & Restoration, recently merged with a company known as BluSky that provides commercial, industrial, governmental, residential, and multifamily restoration, renovation, environmental, and roofing services across the United States and Puerto Rico. With an emphasis on large projects, BluSky does not build things; but restores and rebuilds them. BluSky engaged employees bring experience and teamwork to anyone who owns or manages property, provides property insurance, or manages property insurance claims. There are no guarantees of safety during earthquakes, but properly constructed and strengthened homes are far less likely to

  Some Questions   Is it true: Only one CA EQI product treats HOAs as commercial entities? Will other companies follow this lead? What is the advantage of this for HOAs? What about the MOTUS EQI offerings? ▶ After seeing the trouble that California condo associations and owners faced, Motus Insurance Services brought together a team of the state’s most respected earthquake insurers and condo insurance specialists to create the Motus Opt-in Master Earthquake Program. This new direct-to-consumer earthquake insurance program allows all condo owners to fully protect their homes from earthquake damage while taking advantage of the same great rates available for master earthquake insurance policies. Motus is able to bring this solution to consumers because it worked with the California Department of Insurance to remove the barriers that prevented individual owners from buying into the same insurance coverage available to homeowners’ associations, which offers far more comprehensive coverage
