Tropical waves have been circulating for a few days in the Atlantic. None pose a threat. However, we must not forget the hurricane risk and be ready. The preparation also concerns his accommodation and his insurance. What are everyone's responsibilities?
Response elements.
By renting a property, an owner has duties and responsibilities just like the tenant. If the accommodation suffers a disaster during the passage of a cyclone, everyone must take steps.
This may seem obvious but it is not always put into practice in Saint-Martin: when an owner rents his property to a person, he must draw up a lease in good and due form and have it signed by the tenant before the latter it does not move.
When moving in, the tenant also has the obligation to take out housing insurance and provide the certificate to the lessor. This insurance covers damage that the tenant may cause to the accommodation as well as damage caused to his personal effects by a disaster, in particular a cyclone. It is independent of that taken out by the owner, which covers damage caused to the building itself.
After a cyclone, the tenant must file a claim with his insurance company and notify the owner who must also make a statement on his side. (soualigapost.com)
