Understanding the 72-Hour Clause in Fire Insurance It states that any loss of or damage to the insured property arising from a single fire peril during the period of 72 consecutive hours shall be deemed as a single event and therefore subject to one deductible and one claim limit.
The 72 hour clause is usually written into sales contracts by the seller, this allows a seller to keep the home on the market and accept backup offers on the property during. This clause is also commonly known as the escape clause, release clause, kick-out clause, hedge cause or right of first refusal clause.
Once you have your total, you can quickly calculate the perfect amount of contingency time to add. Chris Croft recommends using the “half the difference method”, which is simply finding the difference between the estimated and worst-case scenarios and then adding half of that to your final estimate.
