Common Homeowners Insurance Questions

What is home insurance?

Your home represents one of the most important and expensive investments that you will ever make. That value alone is worth protecting, and homeowners insurance will help you do so.

You never know when a hazardous event—a house fire, break in, severe storm—might occur in your home, cause damage and put you in a very tricky situation. You will want to make the necessary repairs to your property without a huge financial strain, however. Homeowners insurance will pay your recovery costs on your behalf. That way, you can rest assured that you will be able to move on from life’s challenges without costing yourself an arm and a leg.

What does home insurance cover?

Homeowners insurance policies offer a diversity of benefits, each designed to offer targeted protection for a diversity of unexpected, unavoidable issues. These include:

Structure protection: This insures your house in the event of damage from fires, weather, theft, vandalism or other hazards.

Detached structures coverage: Other buildings on your property – such as fences, carports, gazebos and detached garages - will have coverage.

Possessions insurance: This pays for damaged belongings. Protection might cover everything from furniture to food in the pantry and computer systems.

Liability coverage: If you accidentally harm someone else or damage their property, you can use this coverage to repay them. Coverage will often pay for incidents both on and off your property.

Additional living expense protection: Do you need to move out temporarily after household damage? Let this coverage reimburse you for expenses like dining or hotel bills.

Plus, because your home is unique, you can further tailor your benefits with more unique options like:

Scheduled items riders

Replacement cost value possessions coverage

Umbrella liability insurance

Flood insurance

Earthquake and windstorm endorsements

Pet liability insurance

We will always customize your plan to your advantage by helping you tailor your deductibles and overall coverage limits.

How much home insurance do I have to buy?

Most mortgage lenders require homebuyers to purchase homeowners insurance before they will approve loan applications. Generally, they will require you to obtain at least enough dwelling coverage for your home’s replacement cost value.

Regardless of any coverage requirement, however, you should always carry this benefit as part of your comprehensive personal insurance package.

What does home insurance cost?

Multiple factors could influence the cost of your home insurance, including:

The value of the home

The home’s location

Your credit score

Security features in the home

Your chosen policy and coverage limits
