AN ACT CONCERNING THE ASSIGNMENT OF POST-LOSS HOMEOWNERS AND COMMERCIAL PROPERTY INSURANCE BENEFITS, CONSUMER BILL OF RIGHTS AND REVISING DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS FOR HOME IMPROVEMENT CONTRACTORS AND SALESPERSONS.
FILE NO. 747
Summary
The bill requires any agreement that transfers a homeowner’s or commercial‑property insurance payout to a contractor to be in writing, include a clear cancellation right, provide itemized cost estimates, and be sent to the insurer promptly. It also bans hidden fees and forces a bold warning notice to the policyholder. The aim is to protect policyholders from unfair terms when they assign post‑loss benefits.
