Payment Tracking: Follow up weekly with insurance carriers to ensure check issuance, mortgage endorsements, and claim payouts.
3. Customer Communication & Accounts Receivable
Client Touchpoints: Communicate professionally with homeowners to keep them updated on scope submissions, adjuster approval status, and deductible payments.
Collections: Follow up politely but firmly with property owners for final invoice payments and self-pay balances.
Scope Clarifications: Explain scope limitations, content cleaning protocols, and insurance deductible responsibilities to customers.
Required Qualifications & Skills
Xactimate Proficiency: Minimum 2+ years of hands-on experience drafting Xactimate estimates (Level 1 or Level 2 certification is a strong plus).
