HOME OWNERS INSURANCE

This insurance type also provides liability coverage against accidents that take place in the home or on the property.

HOMEOWNERS

Homeowners insurance is one of many types of property insurances. It covers losses and damages to an individual’s residence, along with furnishings and other assets in the home. This insurance type also provides liability coverage against accidents that take place in the home or on the property.

Homeowners’ policies work the same as any other insurance product; the insured pays an agreed-upon monthly premium to their insurance provider. That way should an incident happen, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your home and assets are protected.

Every homeowner’s policy is different. However, they all tend to cover interior and exterior damage to the home along with the previously mentioned aspects of a person’s property. Each policy has a liability limit. This limit determines the amount of coverage your insurance provides you in the event of an incident.

There are hundreds of insurance products available these days, and it’s easy to get them mixed up. However, you shouldn’t confuse homeowners’ insurance with a home warranty or mortgage insurance as they are entirely different policies.

Understanding a Homeowners Policy

A homeowner’s policy will typically cover four types of damage to the insured’s property:

Interior damage
Exterior damage
Loss or damage of personal belongings
Injuries that occur on the property

When a claim is made on one of these incidents, the homeowner will have to pay a deductible. A deductible is an amount not covered by your insurance. So, depending on the cost of the claim will depend on how much you’ll have to pay out of your own pocket.

It should be noted that the higher the deductible on an insurance contract, the lower the monthly premium will be on your homeowner’s insurance policy. If you’d like to learn more about your monthly or yearly premium options, speak with our experienced agents today, and we’ll find a policy that’s right for you.

Our agents work with various insurance companies so we can find you a wide range of options and help you discover a policy at a price that’s right for you.

Coverage Options

As previously mentioned, there are various types of homeowner’s policies available to you. A standard policy will generally include six types of coverages.

Those coverages are as follows:

Dwelling – this covers damages done to your home and any attached structures, for example, a porch. The typical coverage amount will be enough o rebuild your home if disaster strikes.
Other Structures – this pertains to structures on your property that are not attached to your home, for example, if you have a free-standing garage or a shed. It also covers damage to fences.
Liability – This type of coverage will prevent you from having to pay out-of-pocket if someone suffers an injury while at your property. Liability coverage can also cover the cost of unintentional property damage.
Personal Property – This coverage pays to repair or replace belongings that are stolen or damaged. However, only if the damage takes place during a covered event.
Medical Payments – This coverage type goes hand-in-hand with your liability coverage. It will cover the cost of medical expenses in the event someone suffers an injury while at your residence.
Additional Living Expenses – If your home is severely damaged and not suitable to live in whilst getting repaired, this coverage type will help pay for temporary living expenses.
