Chinese Drywall Insurance: Dropping Policyholders For Failure to Repair?

   The nightmare of Chinese Drywall Claims has gotten more nightmarish.  Homeowners have made Claims under their Homeowner's Insurance Policies.  Their Homeowner's Insurance Companies have denied the Claims, chiefly on the basis of Pollution Exclusions.

   Now, at least one Homeowner's Insurer is reportedly not renewing such Policies unless the Homeowners-Policyholders repair the damage caused by the Chinese Drywall, for which the Homeowners made Claims, which the Homeowner's Insurance Company denied.

   See Beatrice E. Garcia and Nirvi Shah, "Homeowners Could Lose Insurance Coverage Over Chinese-Drywall Woes" (Miami Herald Online, Thursday, October 8, 2009).
