What home insurance do I need?
A typical homeowners policy comes with several coverage options. Therefore, when building your policy, let one of our agents help you figure out which of the following are right for you:
-
Dwelling insurance covers your home’s structure against unexpected damage.
-
Other structures coverage pays for damage to property that is detached from your dwelling such as carports, storage sheds, gazebos or fencing.
-
Liability insurance pays when you are at fault for property damage or bodily injuries to third parties who do not live in your home. Your policy can compensate them for their losses and cover legal expenses resulting from a lawsuit.

How much coverage should I buy?
By considering some of the limits of standard coverage, you can better decide where to ask your agent to adapt your policy to better address your household risks.

Possessions coverage pays for damage to most items at their cash value, which is an item’s used value at the time of the loss. You can increase this coverage by buying replacement cost coverage or by buying coverage endorsements on specialty items like collectibles or jewelry.
