Are your outlets 3 prong?

If you have K&T wiring you might as well replace it now and get some

Homeowners insurance companies refuse to provide new *insurance

K&T usually isnt grounded, has few outlets making for more extension
cords a big fire risk.

just call state farm and ask about a new policy with K&T you will get
turned down flat.

if a future home buyer cant get insurance they cant get a mortage
so no one will want to buy your home

well maybe a cash buyer at great discount... which isnt good for sales
price.

think of how many new cars and other things you buy in 70 years, to
get modern safe things.

well the electrical system in your home is no different. nothing lasts
forever

Again, another incident of this lie. *Insurance companies don't know or
care about the wiring.

Anyone who doubts my statement just call state farm. They will flat
out NOT sell a new policy to any NEW customer with K&T./

Its not just the K&T but the lack of sufficent outlets etc......

these days a new homeowners policy gets a home inspection by a
insurance company representive or at minimum the agent drives by and
takes photos of ther new perspective customers home.

they dont want to voluntarily insure homes at risk.
