A coverage called Loss of Use/Additional Living Expense is utilized to cover the costs of temporary relocation and related expenses. Black Diamond Housing Services will cover these costs and bill the carrier directly for the incurred expenses. Typically, this coverage is “as incurred,” requiring the homeowner to spend the money to relocate and wait for reimbursement. Black Diamond Housing Services incurs these costs on your behalf to prevent any out-of-pocket expenses during an already stressful time.
