Policies covering Laguna Niguel properties generally pay for sudden deterioration and not for age, so the report has to separate the two clearly. In practice, we work alongside the adjuster on Laguna Niguel claims rather than around them, which keeps the scope honest and the timeline shorter. Worth knowing before you sign anything.
