What a home policy covers
Homeowners coverage, line by line
A standard homeowners policy brings several protections together under one roof. Here is what each part does and why it matters.
- Dwelling
- Pays to repair or rebuild the structure of your home, including the roof, walls, and built-in systems, after a covered loss such as fire, wind, or a burst pipe.
- Other Structures
- Covers structures on your property that are not attached to the house, such as a detached garage, fence, shed, or backyard studio.
- Personal Property
- Protects your belongings, including furniture, electronics, and clothing, whether they are damaged at home or, on many policies, while you are away from it.
- Personal Liability
- Helps pay legal costs and damages if you are found responsible for injury to another person or damage to their property.
- Loss of Use / Additional Living Expense
- Reimburses added costs like temporary lodging and meals if a covered loss makes your home unlivable while it is repaired.
- Optional add-ons
- Endorsements that tailor a policy to your situation, for example Optional add-ons such as water backup coverage and scheduled valuables for jewelry or fine art. Ask us which options fit your home.
Why use a broker
Why homeowners choose a broker
Buying home coverage through an independent brokerage puts an expert on your side of the table.
-
Coverage matched to your property
Your home's age, construction, and features shape the right policy. As an independent brokerage, we compare trusted carriers to fit coverage to your property, not a template.
-
The right limits, not guesswork
We help you insure to rebuild, setting your dwelling limit toward replacement cost and right-sizing your liability limits to your assets, so you are far less likely to be left underinsured after a major loss.
-
An advocate at claim time
If the worst happens, the same team that placed your policy helps you file and stays with the claim to keep it moving.
Bundle home and auto
Insuring your home and your vehicles together can unlock multi-policy discounts and simplify renewals. We can quote both at once.
Good to know
Home insurance questions, answered
Is homeowners insurance required?
It is not required by state law, but if you have a mortgage your lender will almost always require you to carry it. Even without a loan, a policy protects what is likely your largest asset. We can walk you through what makes sense for your situation.
How much dwelling coverage do I need?
Your dwelling limit should reflect what it would cost to rebuild your home at today's prices, which is often different from its market value or purchase price. We help you estimate replacement cost so you are neither underinsured nor paying for more than you need.
Does home insurance cover floods or earthquakes?
Standard homeowners policies exclude flood and earthquake damage. Those risks are covered by separate policies or endorsements. If your area carries either risk, we can help you add the right protection.
What is the difference between replacement cost and actual cash value?
Replacement cost pays to repair or replace property without deducting for age or wear. Actual cash value subtracts depreciation, so it pays less on older items. We will show you how each option affects your premium and your payout.
Will filing a claim raise my premium?
It can, depending on the claim and your history, which is why it is worth weighing a small claim against your deductible. As your broker we help you make that call and, at renewal, shop the market if your rate moves.
