Question 81

Vandalism to a building is excluded under the dwelling form DP-3 if the building has been vacant for more than 60 consecutive days.

If a building has been vacant for more than 60 consecutive days, vandalism is excluded from coverage under the dwelling form DP-3.

A) 15 consecutive days

This option is incorrect because the exclusion for vandalism does not apply until the building has been vacant for more than 60 days. A vacancy of 15 days is not sufficient to trigger this exclusion.

B) 30 consecutive days

This choice is also incorrect. While a vacancy of 30 consecutive days indicates an extended absence, it still does not meet the threshold of 60 days that the DP-3 policy specifies for vandalism exclusion.

C) 45 consecutive days

Option C is incorrect as well. A building that has been vacant for 45 consecutive days is still within the range that does not trigger the vandalism exclusion under the DP-3 form, which requires a vacancy of more than 60 days.

D) 60 consecutive days

This is the correct answer. Under the dwelling form DP-3, vandalism is excluded if the building has been vacant for more than 60 consecutive days, making this option accurate.

Conclusion

The correct answer is definitive because the DP-3 form explicitly states that vandalism coverage is lost when a property has been vacant for over 60 days. Options A, B, and C do not satisfy this condition, thus failing to provide the correct timeframe for the exclusion. Therefore, only option D accurately reflects the policy's requirements regarding vacancy and vandalism coverage.
