DelSuites Returns To Exhibit At The OIAA Claims Conference 2024

March 27, 2024

Heading into the heart of Toronto’s housing insurance landscape, DelSuites is thrilled to be attending this year’s Ontario Insurance Adjusters Association (OIAA) Claims Conference. Why, you may ask?

At DelSuites, we provide more than just a space for temporary living. We offer peace of mind. Disruptions at home, be it a minor hiccup or a significant catastrophe, can throw lives into a tailspin. Our dedication to providing timely, comfortable, and welcoming short-term rentals in Toronto and the GTA in periods of crisis is integral to our mission.

We understand the importance of restoring normalcy and ensuring safety, especially in the hours that matter the most. This conference is not just about claims but about making a difference and shaping the future of housing insurance to meet the changing needs of our communities.

We’re making strides, and we can’t wait to share our journey with you at the OIAA Claims Conference on April 9–10.

What’s the OIAA?

For nearly a century, the Ontario Insurance Adjusters Association (OIAA) has been a cornerstone in shaping the claims adjustment and risk management sector within the province.

Approaching its 100th anniversary since its inception in 1930, the OIAA’s membership has consistently pushed the envelope, navigating through pressing questions, instigating change, and innovating services that have left a landmark impact.

At its core, the OIAA’s mission thrives on a few primary pillars, including:

Upholding the highest ethical standards in the insurance claims adjustment sector, setting comprehensive benchmarks that exemplify integrity and professionalism
Tackling industry-related issues that impact the overall business of insurance claims and adjustment, ensuring smooth operations and enhanced service quality
Nurturing healthy relationships with governmental bodies, other organizations, and the general public to promote mutual growth in the context of insurance claims and their corresponding industries
Continually augmenting member benefits by facilitating value-added opportunities for networking, ongoing education, professional accolades, and unwavering support

As the OIAA forges ahead, it remains committed to its pivotal role of advancing the insurance industry, shaping its present and moulding its future. Its contributions to society are considerable and groundbreaking, making it a truly relevant and integral player in Ontario’s insurance landscape.

The Critical Role of Insurance Adjustments

Insurance adjustments are a crucial component of the recovery process post-disruption. They facilitate smooth transitions and enable individuals to regain control of their circumstances by:

Accurate Claim Assessment: Comprehensive evaluations of claims ensure that policyholders receive the compensation they deserve. Proper assessment prevents underpayments that can hinder repair and restoration efforts.
Streamlined Negotiations: Skilled adjusters can handle settlement negotiations with effectiveness and efficiency, expediting the claim resolution process.
Unbiased Mediation: A fair and impartial mediator can balance the scales between the insured and insurer, promoting mutual agreement and satisfaction.
Policyholder Advocacy: Insurance adjusters represent the interests of policyholders, advocating for their rights and ensuring they are fully vindicated.

This is where DelSuites steps in. Our dedication to providing secure and comfortable emergency housing solutions aligns with the duties of insurance adjusters.

We understand the difficulties faced when life takes an unforeseen turn, but we are here to ease the journey, one step at a time. Our commitment to this cause is only underlined by our presence at the OIAA Claims Conference Trade Show.

This event provides us with the opportunity not just to network and learn but also to reflect on how integral insurance adjustments are in helping people return to normalcy. Together, we’re building a resilient future, one where the pain of disruption is eased by swift resolutions and restorative home solutions.

We’re excited to reveal more about our dedication to this cause at the conference.

Insurance Housing Solutions: DelSuites Furnished Condo Rentals for Adjusters

July 26, 2023

Whether it’s a natural disaster like a tornado, hurricane, lightning, or flood; damage due to fire, smoke, or water; or any other event that leads to displacement of your policyholders – you know first-hand the devastation it causes.

The homes and lives of your clients have been disrupted in an instant. Now all eyes are on you for the next steps. Even though their policy will likely cover expenses for temporary housing during these challenging times, finding insurance housing is often tricky and time-consuming.

That’s why DelSuites is here for you. Working with us will eliminate the stress of sourcing short-term housing solutions. This lets you zero in on what matters most – helping your policyholders get back on their feet.

DelSuites Makes the Process Easier

Once disaster strikes, families need immediate shelter. Finding temporary housing can be a daunting task, especially during chaotic times. As an adjuster, you have to overcome many obstacles, including:

Insufficient space or bedrooms for the size of the family
Finding accommodations within the insured’s neighbourhood so they can maintain a sense of normalcy
Dealing with budget restraints
Cutting through red tape and slow response time with other property managers

That’s why insurance adjusters are the perfect choice to help policyholders find fast and secure solutions.

At DelSuites, we understand that finding reliable temporary housing in the wake of a disaster requires speed and accuracy – that’s why we make it easier for adjusters to do their jobs effectively by providing simple online forms or one-phone call bookings for emergency or next-day accommodations.

Plus, our established relationships with Toronto-area insurance providers simplify coverage approvals so displaced policyholders can get into safe and comfortable homes quickly.

Our Goal is to Exceed Expectations

DelSuites insurance housing solutions meet policyholder expectations for size and location with properties throughout the GTA. And, they’re cost-effective too – meaning insurance adjusters can provide better options than just a hotel stay.

When you work with us, we take over the job of finding temporary housing – making it easier for you to support your policyholders in their time of need by providing a one-stop shop. Not to mention our efficient search/find criteria feature that meets the insured’s needs and expectations quickly and reliably.

Need Temporary Housing During an Insurance Claim? DelSuites Can Help

December 23, 2020

No one’s ever prepared for an unexpected emergency. If your home has been damaged or even destroyed by an accident or a natural disaster, you may be eligible to claim temporary housing on your insurance plan.

DelSuites offers temporary, fully-furnished condo accommodation that is perfect for families who find themselves in need of emergency housing.

We understand that these times can be traumatic and stressful. Our modern, stylish apartments can make things that much easier.

So, what makes DelSuites the perfect option for you?

You Can Move In Immediately

One great advantage to our suites is the turnaround time. In most housing emergencies, time is of the essence.

If you need somewhere to live temporarily, you’re probably eager to move in as soon as possible. With DelSuites, we can get you set up in your new home away from home immediately.

Our Suites Are Located All Over the GTA

Here at DelSuites, we have housing available throughout the entire GTA. Most Torontonians who need urgent accommodation prefer to move somewhere in their own neighbourhood, as this allows them to be close to friends, schools, and familiar stores.

Choose a suite in your own area to make this period much easier for you and your family.

We Offer Large Homes With Ample Space

Some temporary suites are designed for business trips, and feel more like hotels than apartments. Our suites are famous for their homely feel and their ample space.

If you have a family, we even offer three-bedroom properties with ample space for everyone. Some of our suites are even located in houses and townhouses, which means you can feel even more at home, depending on what you’re used to.

Our Suites Are Fully-Furnished and Fully-Equipped

There’s no need to worry about purchasing new cookware, furniture, or appliances. Your suite will be fully-furnished and fully-fitted with everything you could need. This means you can save money on emergency supplies during your stay, and get back to normal as quickly as possible.

Receive Bi-Weekly Cleaning Services

Here’s another thing you can check off your to-do list—cleaning! Cleaning can be an added hassle during an already stressful time.

We offer a bi-weekly cleaning service for your apartment, so you can get on with the important stuff.

Take Advantage of the Building Amenities

Our condos are located in some of the city’s best buildings. Many include a range of great amenities, including spas, fitness centers, and parking, so that you and your family will have everything you could need at your fingertips.

Our Buildings Are Incredibly Safe

These condo buildings are also incredibly safe. All of our properties have 24/7 security and most suites are equipped with a security alarm system to ensure that you, your family, and your belongings are always completely safe.

Many people in emergency situations can find themselves in uncomfortable, unsafe temporary housing—with DelSuites, you won’t have to worry about any more issues.

We Offer a Personalized Experience

Our team at DelSuites always goes above and beyond for our guests. We can offer you a highly personalized experience.

One of our agents can help you to find the best possible new home that ticks all of your boxes. We’ll meet with you personally and help you get settled in and re-oriented.

We Can Even Work With Your Adjuster

If you are working with an adjuster or claims investigator, our team can work with them too. We will connect with your adjuster and ensure you get the best, quickest new home you can.

We Offer Pet-Friendly Suites

Many pet-owners run into difficulties with temporary housing companies that do not allow pets.

We understand how important it is to keep the whole family together, including your pets, so we’ll help you find a suite that allows pets, too.

No Taxes

At DelSuites, we do not charge hotel taxes. Most accomodation companies in Canada charge a 5% GST on top of other fees.

Because we charge no taxes, you won’t have to worry about any surprise charges.
