A documented local storm
Forney’s April 2012 tornado
The National Weather Service documented a tornado near Forney on April 3, 2012 that remained in Kaufman County. It damaged homes, a school roof, and vehicles. For your property review, list each building and the vehicles or equipment kept there.
The payment total covers homeowners policies, not farm, commercial, auto, renters, condo, dwelling-only or TWIA losses. It is not an average claim or a forecast of your premium. The storm example is separate historical evidence; it does not explain the 2025 total or predict the next storm.

Describe the property beyond the front door
Make the activities clear
Personal horses, paid boarding, and riding lessons are different uses to discuss. Include barns, shops, equipment, and visitors in the conversation. A home policy may leave gaps for business equipment or injuries to customers and employees. Ask which activities the proposed coverage addresses.
TDI: Business use of a homeRead the roof terms for each building
Bring roof details for the house and any barn or shop you want insured. Ask how covered damage would be paid and which deductible applies. Replacement cost and actual cash value can leave different amounts for you to pay; do not assume the house and outbuildings have identical terms.
TDI: Roof coverageCheck rising water separately
A storm can raise a separate flood question even when a home policy includes wind coverage. Most home policies do not cover flooding. Ask about water rising from outside and review the needs of the home and other buildings individually.
TDI: Home, flood, and windBring a picture of the whole property
A short list and a few records can make the first conversation more useful.
- Property address, building list, approximate sizes, uses, and photos.
- Current policies, roof details, deductibles, and any renewal changes.
- Horses or livestock, equipment, and whether they are personally owned or part of a business.
- Boarding, training, lease, or other agreements involving paid work or visitors.
