Make sure you purchase a policy that reflects the unique qualities
of your home, its contents and the people who live there.
Your home should be insured from the moment
you take legal ownership—even if it is under
construction.Your broker's expertise is particu-
larly useful at this stage when you really need
to match policy features with needs. Here's a
primer to get you started:
Home insurance covers the building,
its contents and liability.
There are usually three parts to your homeowner's
policy. For condominium owners and tenants, just the
contents and liability coverages apply:
1. Building insurance covers the main dwelling,
garage and any out -buildings.
2. Contents insurance covers the cost of replacing
furniture, carpets and personal possessions.
Valuables such as art, jewels and furs may require
additional coverage. Note that most contents are
insured even outside the home, for example, if
stolen while you are on a trip.
3. Liability policies insure against the costs incurred
if, due to negligence, you are held responsible for
an act causing injury or property damage to others.
Policies range from
comprehensive to "bare -bones"
You can save money by scaling down your policy but
be careful not to under-insure.There are three gener-
al policy categories from which to choose:
1. Comprehensive policies cover the building and its
contents for normal risks to which a home is
exposed. Some risks will be excluded, such as
acts of terrorism or flooding.
2. Basic/Named Perils policies help you save by
letting you carry more of the financial risk.You will
be covered for just the perils that are specified, for
example, lightning and explosion.
3. Broad policies takes a blended approach by
providing named perils coverage on big items
such as your dwelling and all-risks coverage on
contents.
Take the time to understand what's
covered and what isn't.
Don't assume that once you have a policy
you are covered for everything. Ask your
broker to explain the details.
