In: Cars Insurance
19 Feb 2010I have a friend that is dating a guy who was in a car accident and suffered an injury 8 years ago. She has told me that his insurance company is paying for his apartment rent as well as furnishings for the apartment. Something seems really wrong with this but I’m wondering if its just me.

I have never seen this happen , but if it is a part of the settlement agreement between the insurance company and the injured party, I guess anything is possible.

Unless there has been a Civil Suit, it is highly unlikely.

If your friend’s boyfriend was permanently disabled and the place he’s living now is specially modified to accommodate his disability, and he has to pay higher rent because of the modifications, then I can see the insurer having to pay for the difference in the rent (if he has coverage on his policy for rehabilitation expenses). The same would apply for his furniture, however if he didn’t have such coverage then it must be something arranged in a settlement.

Amy, Home insurance is actually very flexible. I don’t understand all the details of my policy, but my homeowners insurance agent is always helpful. Try calling your agent or a homeowners agent in your town. http://www.americaschoicetoday.com/Home-Insurance.html They will be able to help you.
