Hamptons Survival Guide: Homeowners Insurance
Thinking about giving permission to your 16-year-old to throw a party at your home in Water Mill this weekend? You might want to take a lesson from Jodie Hudson, who organized a little event at her parents $6.8 million villa in Marbella last week and promoted it as the "party of the year" on Facebook. Some 400 randoms turned up and transformed the stately mansion into an "uninhabitable...war zone." A TV and a dozen pieces of furniture wound up at the bottom of the pool, much of her mom's jewelry and wardrobe disappeared, and although the home had been up for sale, it's since been yanked from the market. Just a friendly reminder to make sure your homeowners policy covers, like, human urine on your hand-carved ceilings before you head off on vacation and leave your spoiled brat with the keys to the kingdom.
