We have received reports from clients within the Wardell area that they have been approached by companies claiming to lodge claims and act in the behalf of the property owner.

Often these companies will require a contract to be signed and for payment they receive 10% of the claim settlement.

If you are unsure, always contact your Broker who is here to act on your behalf come claim time.
