    Yeah, it’s getting worse and worse. Insurance will evolve to stay alive. I’m already seeing policy changes to compensate for the higher risk. ACV Endorsements are a bitch. If you don’t know what that is and you have one on your policy, you better get familiar with it and not wait till it affects you.
