Question: What is the difference between and RV and an RI? …RI means they are re-instating the old value. An RV is revaluing at something different than the old value. Either one will be great for us. If they re-Instate it – I believe the rate was $3 something…maybe $3.30 or so…. Even with a re-instatement they are able to add more for inflation which could put it in the $4 dollar range. That is the basics.
