RE: Shelter vs. State Farm for home insurance in Missouri - any strong opinions?
I’ve been reading through my Shelter and State Farm quotes, and the way they describe what’s covered is just… confusing. “Appurtenant structures” threw me too - like, is my shed covered or not? I wish they’d just say “sh...
