Property coverage
This part of your policy covers the cost to repair or rebuild the main structure of your home if it's damaged or destroyed by common risks such as fire, severe weather, or theft. It’s based on the replacement value of your home, which reflects the cost to rebuild, not its market value. This ensures you're financially protected if disaster strikes.
Personal property
Also known as contents insurance, this covers the items inside your home—furniture, appliances, clothing, electronics, and more. If your belongings are damaged, destroyed, or stolen due to an insured event, this coverage can help repair or replace them.
Additional living expenses
If a covered loss leaves your home uninhabitable, this coverage helps with the cost of temporary accommodations, meals, and other necessary living expenses while your home is being repaired or rebuilt. It ensures your family can maintain a reasonable standard of living during difficult times.
Liability coverage
Liability coverage protects you if someone is injured on your property or if you accidentally damage someone else’s property. Personal liability can help cover legal and medical costs, while voluntary property damage and medical payments provide additional support—even if you're not legally at fault. Coverage amounts vary, but most policies include $100,000 or more for personal liability and set limits for optional protections.
