Finding the right homeowners insurance policy can be tricky, but it’s crucial to ensure the safety of your home and personal belongings. If an unforeseen incident happens, you don’t want to be left footing the entire bill for repairs or replacements. That’s why the agents at Bruni Insurance Agency are committed to walking you through the basics of homeowners insurance and helping you find the policy that’s right for you.
How Much Homeowners Insurance Should I Buy?
If you’re taking out a mortgage, most lenders require you to have at least enough homeowners insurance to cover the replacement cost of your home. Additionally, if you live in areas more prone to certain disasters like fires or floods, you may want to purchase specific policies to cover losses that may result from these incidents. Otherwise, homeowners insurance policies are highly customizable and can be written to fit your particular needs.
What Does Homeowners Insurance Cover?
Here are a few common areas of coverage for homeowners insurance:
- Liability coverage—This portion of your policy can help cover the cost of third-party injuries and damages. Liability coverage generally pays for incidents both on and off your property.
- Possessions insurance—This type of coverage insures the individual items in your home. Depending on how much possessions insurance you purchase, anything from electronics to clothes to furniture could be covered.
- Structure protection—The physical structure of your home is protected with this type of coverage, helping to pay the costs of repairs and replacements from incidents like inclement weather or theft.
- Detached structure protection—This portion of your policy covers structures on your property that are not directly attached to your house, including gazebos, fences or carports.
- Additional living expense protection—If a covered incident occurs in your home and you need to vacate it for a time, this type of coverage will help you pay for your living expenses while you’re away, including meal costs and hotel bills.
How Do Home Insurance Claims Work?
The claims filing process varies from insurer to insurer. Typically, you will need to file a claim with your insurer to be compensated for a covered loss. After you file your claim, your insurer will review it and decide whether your claim is valid. If it is, they will issue checks so you can begin to make repairs and replace your belongings. It’s crucial to maintain contact with your insurance agent throughout the claims process so questions or concerns can be addressed promptly. Contact your agent to find out how their specific process works.
