FAQ
Standard homeowners insurance does not cover everything. Common exclusions include:
· Floods – Requires a separate flood insurance policy.
· Earthquakes – Usually excluded unless added with a specific endorsement.
· Maintenance-related issues – Such as mold, pest infestations, and wear and tear.
· Sewer or drain backups – Unless optional coverage is purchased.
· High-value personal items – Jewelry, fine art, and collectibles may require scheduled personal property coverage to be fully protected.
Always review your policy details to understand specific exclusions.
You need enough insurance to rebuild your home at today’s construction costs, not just its market value. This includes:
· Dwelling coverage – For the full replacement cost of your home.
· Personal property coverage – For your belongings inside the home.
· Liability protection – To cover injury or property damage to others.
· Additional living expenses (ALE) – If you need temporary housing after a covered loss.
Typically, no. Most standard policies exclude flood and earthquake damage. If you live in a high-risk area, you’ll need to purchase separate flood or earthquake insurance policies.
· Flood insurance is often provided through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
· Earthquake insurance is available as an add-on or separate policy through many carriers.
· Replacement Cost (RC) covers the full cost to repair or replace an item with a new one of like kind and quality, without deducting for depreciation.
· Actual Cash Value (ACV) pays for the item’s depreciated value—what it’s worth today.
Example: If your 5-year-old TV is stolen,
· RC would pay to replace it with a new model.
· ACV would pay only what the 5-year-old TV is worth now.
Replacement cost coverage is typically more expensive but provides better protection.
While it’s not legally required, having home insurance is highly recommended even if your mortgage is paid off. Without it, you’d be fully responsible for:
· Repairing or rebuilding after a fire or storm.
· Replacing stolen belongings.
· Covering liability if someone is injured on your property.
Home insurance protects your financial investment and provides peace of mind.
