Hurricane Sandy has left its mark on the East coast and now even a bigger risk is at stake for Hurricane Sandy Victims – mold.
No one is really insured from mold after Hurricane Sandy. In fact, commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) have been affected by the destruction of Hurricane Sandy and there’s a good chance there will be a market-wide effect.
Most buildings hit by Hurricane Sandy will suffer from mold damage and mold insurance often lacks for the majority of buildings.
Mold is one of the largest risk properties flooded for weeks face. Traditionally, mold is excluded from the standard insurance policy.
CMBS loans often do not require mold insurance unless there’s known environmental issues at the location of the property.
