Did you know that your homeowners insurance policy does not provide coverage for earthquake damage?

If you own a home in Oregon, consider how an earthquake can wipe out all of your hard-earned equity in an instant.

The Cascadia Subduction Zone is a 600-mile fault that runs from northern California up to British Columbia. It is also about 70-100 miles off the Pacific coast shoreline.

Oregon has the potential for a 9.0+ magnitude earthquake caused by the Cascadia Subduction Zone.
