A calmer place to land while the claim runs its course.

After a fire, flood, or storm damage claim, most homeowner policies include Additional Living Expense coverage. That coverage pays for temporary housing while the primary home is uninhabitable. The placement decision usually happens under time pressure, in the middle of the disruption, and often with a family, pets, and salvaged belongings in the picture.

Packard Row is a 2025 building set up to reduce friction on placement day. Every apartment ships with a full appliance set (refrigerator, range, dishwasher, microwave, washer, and dryer), controlled-access entry, EV charging on-site, and a modern envelope that keeps the space quiet and comfortable through a stressful season. The leasing team can meet the adjuster for a walk-through, and same-week move-ins are routine.

Lease terms are honest. Standard leases run twelve months. For displacement placements, the leasing team walks through the options at signing: short leases where inventory allows, extensions if the claim runs long, and clear early-termination terms if the rebuild finishes ahead of schedule.

  • Every apartment ships with washer, dryer, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator
  • Controlled-access entry, 24-hour emergency maintenance
  • Cats and dogs welcome, up to two per home
  • EV charging on-site if a car survived the incident
  • Adjuster-friendly walk-throughs and clean paper trail for reimbursement

What to have ready for a fast placement.

Six things that keep placement day short. Bring these to the walk-through and leasing can move from tour to keys inside the week.

Claim number and adjuster contact

The claim number, the adjuster's name, and a phone or email. Leasing routes any placement paperwork through the adjuster on request, which keeps the reimbursement paper trail clean.

Expected placement window

The estimated rebuild timeline the adjuster is working with. Placements typically run 30 to 180 days. Knowing the window at signing lets leasing plan lease terms, extensions, and early-termination paths honestly.

Household size and needs

The number of adults, children, and pets, plus any accessibility considerations. Packard Row welcomes cats and dogs, up to two per home. Layout selection lines up faster when household composition is on the table.

Salvaged belongings inventory

A rough sense of what furniture and belongings survived and need to come into the temporary home. Walk-in closets absorb clothing well; larger salvaged furniture may need a separate storage plan the leasing team can point toward.

Vehicle and EV needs

Whether cars survived, whether an EV needs charging, and whether standard on-site parking is enough. Packard Row has on-site parking and EV charging stations. Availability for a placement window is confirmed at signing.

Documentation preferences

Whether reimbursement receipts should route directly to the adjuster, be sent monthly, or be handled when the placement wraps. Leasing follows the paper trail the household prefers so nothing is a surprise at reimbursement time.

Homes ready for a fast placement.

Walnut and Tamarack are the compact 1BR layouts for a couple or a single displaced homeowner. Chestnut is the smallest 2BR with two full bathrooms, sized for a family placement when the primary home has more bedrooms than the ALE budget covers.
