Real Reliable home owner insurance that pays in a disaster.

Wayne 07

I know the Philippines have typhoons quite often. Is there a reliable insurance company that will pay you if you meet with a disaster on your home. ( I.e. lost of roof doing typhoon). I want to know about a insurance company that has proven to be trust worthy and really do pay people for disaster relief.

If anyone has dealt with such a company please share. Also if you could quote the annual price for the policy this would be helpful.

Thanks!

I am not afraid. I just want to be prepared. I know typhoon are a way of life there. Either I have insurance or money in the bank to cover damages.
