II have tried to start a new thread but it didn’t work.
Could someone do so?
I am desperate.

This is what I need to know and I desperately need advice.

————————————

State Farm is not doing jack and Friday I will have no place to live as the entire motel will be filled up with contractors “improving” a perfectly fine Walmart until APRIL.
State Farm has failed to find me a reasonable place to stay and the money is running out.
I have found a contractor service that will get things going ASAP but it will cost me $5400 with a &1500 down payment.
They will find contractors who can do the job as it needs done with the crap State Farm is proposing.
Basically they will contact a 130 some contractors and narrow it down to 3 or 4 who will battle it out to bid the lowest price and do it fast and efficient.
State Farm wants to bring in their own who will no doubt have a vested interest to charge as much as they can and save SF money to pay out the least possible.
The guy I talked to tonight has the opposite approach.
Fast, cheap and good.
I’m on my 3rd “adjuster” now and I’m told they will throw out everything they can to avoid paying for replacements.
I have a lawyer/public adjuster on the hook for that because he won’t put up with a couple grand offer for a huge payout.
I am about to get screwed and I know it.
Does anyone know this stuff and have advice?
“Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there”
Yah.
If your neighbor is Charlie Manson, maybe.
They doing the tea and sympathy act to gain my trust and scaring me into desperation to accept the offers at the same time.
Just. No.
I don’t know this stuff, yeah I’m a dumb hillbilly but I learn fast and my gut is screaming that I’m about to be mauled by a company whose bottom line is more important that my life.
Please, if anyone knows anything, help me.
Come Friday, I’m probably going to be freezing in his machine shop because the people who are supposed to find me temporary housing have told me to find my own place and “let them know if I do”.
I’m managing two dogs, my not-all-there hubby and my 86year old mom on top of all this.
I am literally doing everything for everyone and I have no time or energy left to try and take care of myself.
This is above and beyond me and I need someone with experience to help.
Please.
