Weegy: Unfortunately, there is no way that you can research previous home insurance claims on a house that you don’t own. While there are two national databases that contain loss history reports, they aren’t available to you unless they are about you. [ These databases are called the Comprehensive Loss Underwriting Exchange (CLUE) and the Automated Property Loss Underwriting System (A-PLUS). You may be wondering what these databases are for if not for public use. Well, they are for insurance companies; they are the ones that can request a list of claims on a house. This doesn’t mean, however, that you can go and ask your agent to run a list of claims on a house you are interested in buying; that is against the law. Only the actual homeowner can make that request. So, where does that leave you? If you are interested in purchasing a home, you can tell the homeowner that you want to see a previous claims list before you buy. They can request the list from their insurance agent (there may be a small fee) and then provide it to you. You should make it clear that you won’t purchase the home without seeing the list; if the homeowner won’t provide it, then you might want to reconsider the purchase, they may have something to hide. If a homeowner has had too many claims on their home and you come along and purchase it without requesting a previous claims report, you may find that the home you are buying is uninsurable. Too many claims on a home, especially if there is a lot of theft or things like flooding, makes the home high-risk and insurance companies want to avoid risk. It is very important that you know what you are getting, in this respect, before you buy. Full Disclosure from the Homeowner May Not be Enough Many people assume that the homeowner is going to tell them about every possible problem that has ever occurred with the house since it is the law; and they should. The problem is, they might not even know what is on their claims report. In most states it ... (More)

Weegy: The first step in research is to find out what sources of information are available. The Internet has vastly increased the amount of information accessible to the average person, and libraries also use the power of computer networks for research. [ For each area of concern, there are many sources you can use. 1. Laws and regulations. If you think a law is being broken, it's obviously necessary to know exactly what that law is and what its provisions are. There are several possible places to find state and federal laws. Law libraries. Law libraries are generally located in or near county courthouses and in law schools. While many public libraries may have complete copies of the state law code, law librarians are generally more knowledgeable, and can more easily and quickly help you find what you're looking for. Sympathetic lawyers and politicians. You may be able to find an attorney willing to research a particular law or legal question for you because he's interested in the issue. By the same token, a simple call to a politician's office may obtain the same result. Your elected representative may ask an aide to help you find the appropriate material as a form of constituent service. In either of these cases, you should have a well-defined idea of what you're looking for. You can't expect someone to go through all the state environmental laws, for instance: you have to be able to explain what type of law you think is being violated. The Internet. There are several web sites with listings of or links to state and federal statutes. There are sites with links to all state law codes. One of the best is the Legal Information Institute of Cornell Law School. It contains all state statutes, searchable by topic, as well as federal laws. Another site for federal laws is the US General Services Administration, searchable in a number of different ways. 2.
