| When a homeowner dies or has moved out of the house and the home is no longer OWNER-OCCUPIED can an insurance company deny a homeowner claim?  Yes, an insurance company can deny a homeowner claim if a home is no longer OWNER-OCCUPIED.  This could mean a recent death or the owner simply moving out.  If the home will become a RENTAL property then call your agent and REWRITE to a dwelling fire policy, meaning cancel the homeowners and start a new rental property policy.  If a homeowner dies the home should be REWRITTEN to a VACANT home policy.  Any further questions contact the Flanigan Insurance Agency at 314-727-6000 or dflanflanins@yahoo.com.
