Rainy Day Policies


Like many Montclair homeowners, Gerri Willis, Money Magazine contributing columnist, was chagrinned to learn that her insurance policy had some major loopholes.

"Had the oak fallen on our house, our homeowners policy would have paid for more of the cleanup and replanting.

It was more like Swiss cheese."
