Do you want to know Claims Adjuster Salary?
Notes:
- No guarantee
- Varies
- Hourly, salary and fee-based
On first, there are no guarantees when it comes to independent adjustments. Every page varies from other and they will find this little secret though that working with smaller Ferns so maybe that like a pacesetters or Hartford consultants company claims that they may be able to pay a little bit more. Now how much more? There is no idea about it. So, don’t know if it’s a better fish worth to risk because they have smaller claims, a very smaller number of claims.
State farm and All state are the two biggest assures. It is believed that State farm owns sixty percent of the market, whereas, All-state about half of that. Although it is said that both together own sixty% of the market share yet state farm is twice as big as All-state Company.
Here is the second thing you should note that you might be working on hourly or you could be serving on a salary basis. If you are a salary-based worker, you are not worried about the deployments. But if you are hourly, you might not have the rope or your harness certifications. So, you are making a certain amount of verses.
You might be with the property, rope, and harness certificate so you are going to get paid a little bit more because of that. You also might have decided to be paid on a fee basis. And with the fee base, you get a percentage of each claim.
Now let’s get to the amounts rates.
Hourly rates:
- Auto – $25 / hr + OT | 70-80 hours/week
- Field property – $37.25 + OT | 70-80 hours / week
- Field property (Rope and harness) – $42.50 + OT | 70-80 hours/week
If you are an adjuster there is going to be an hourly rate and again, they are going to differ.
If you look at Auto, you are going to make $25 an hour, plus overtime which means you are working probably about 11 hours a day.
Now with Field property, you will be making 3725 an hour, plus overtime. And they are already working 70-80 hours/week which is nice. So, ten hours a day means $370, which comes to $2000 a week almost.
With the field and harness, you have $5 per hour with the overtime. So, that’s $400 per week.
Not to mention that all that equipment that you are going to buy, your insurance company, or the firm you work with, Whirley’s the Brim Froze, would have you. They might be able to provide some of that equipment for you so that you can save some big bucks for yourself.
How does fee schedule work?
What does the fee schedule say? If the claim is within this range, let’s say $5000 to $10,000, the fee going to be paid to that firm is $970. The average of Ruth’s claim is $8000, but an average claim is $6000.
However, you can see online that the average flood claim is $39000 and this is according to ‘bankrate.com’. But most of the property firms’ claims which are going to be for the roofs, about 80% of them will pay the most because the roof may be damaged a lot and can be bent due to rain or storm.
So, your average claim of the flood is again $39000, which is going to be in this pay range $35000 to $50,000. And the fee that gets paid to the insurance is $1,640.
Now how much of that you would make? That’s the real question. If you take a look you would see that the average property claims to claim them on is $10,000. The fee paid out from the insurance company to the firm is a hundred and seventy dollars ($170). 60% of that would go to the adjuster and 40% of that will go to the IFR. So, the adjuster will get $582 and that’s just for one claim.
As an adjuster, you are probably going to work about three claims a day. So, that’s going to be $2000 a day. Now that’s only if you work property.
I hope now you would have some idea about the claims adjuster salary.
