Long story short, I own a house in MI which suffered extensive water damage. Have been working through the claim process and have a contractor ready to start work. My question is, is it okay for me to make changes using the insurance money, as long as it doesn't incur additional costs? For example, if I had a cast iron clawfoot tub, could I replace it with a cheaper option and use the money saved to have other work done? I actually asked my adjuster about this and he essentially said they don't care what we do with the money as long as it's all used on the house, but I guess I just want to make sure this is true or common.
