WHAT IS CAT ADJUSTING

Insurance companies and IA firms deploy CAT adjusters to catastrophic events, (hail storm, wildfire, flood, hurricane, ect.) where they spend weeks to months at a storm site. Adjusters complete home inspections in the affected region assessing how much compensation the insured customers are entitled to under their insurance policy.

BENEFITS TO CAT ADJUSTING

• High Earning Potential – CAT adjusters are paid per claim closed. This allows for a very high earning potential. CAT adjusters typically average between $70k – $100k in 6 – 9 months during the storm season.
• Self Employment – As a CAT adjuster you are contracted by insurance agencies and are your own boss.
• Helping People In Need – After the catastrophic event hits, people are in desperate need. Getting their compensation helps them put their lives back together.
• Vacation Time – CAT adjusters typically only work 6-9 months a year. This means that they can enjoy 3-6 months of vacation time.

CAT adjusting is a highly rewarding career, but it isn’t for everyone. It takes hard work, organization, dedication, and self-motivation in order to be successful in the field. Do you have what it takes?
