Ask the Right Questions to Get the Right Homeowners Insurance

Homeowners insurance is an important part of protecting your home and your assets. But it can be a complex topic, and it’s important to ask the right questions to make sure you’re getting the coverage you need.

Here are a few tips:

  • Don’t just ask for cheap homeowners insurance. Instead, ask for affordable homeowners insurance that will meet your needs. What’s the difference? Cheap insurance may not provide enough coverage, while affordable insurance will give you the protection you need at a price you can afford.
  • Ask about the different types of coverage available. Homeowners insurance covers a lot of things, but there are also additional coverages that may be available, such as coverage for living expenses after a covered loss or coverage for replacement cost vs. market value.
  • Ask if you’re working with an independent insurance agent. Independent agents can represent multiple insurance companies, which means they can shop around to find the best coverage for you at the best price.

Here are some specific questions you can ask:

  • How much homeowners insurance do I need? Your mortgage company may only require a certain amount of coverage, but it may not be enough to completely replace your home.
  • Is my home protected from water damage and flood damage? Flood insurance is a separate policy that you need to purchase in addition to homeowners insurance.
  • What additional coverages are available? Ask about coverages like living expenses, replacement cost, and identity theft protection.
  • Are you an independent insurance agent?

If you haven’t compared homeowners insurance rates in a while, it’s a good idea to do so. You may be surprised at how much you can save.
