Overview

It pays for the cost of fixing any damage covered in the policy – even if your home is totally destroyed. What many people don’t know is that it can also pay for the cost of temporary housing while your home is being repaired.

In addition to your regular belongings, homeowners insurance can also cover the loss of items that are valuable and/or near and dear to your heart. For example, jewelry, expensive musical instruments, family heirlooms, antique furniture and more.

You can also get policy riders, also known as “endorsements,” to cover damages not covered in a basic homeowners policy. These coverages can include earthquake, sewer backups, identity theft and more. In fact, you may be surprised at some of the losses home insurance policy riders cover:

  • Damage away from home. Do you like to travel? Do you have kids in college? Parts of you personal property and liability coverage may apply to those situations.
  • Pet bites. When your pet bites someone damages can easily cost $35,000 or more.
  • Bring your home up to code after a covered loss. Suppose your home suffers fire damage. Your policy could include paying for upgrading a damaged electrical system that meets the latest codes.
  • Damage from falling debris. Suppose a tree in your back yard topples over and takes out your entire patio. Homeowners insurance may replace it at no cost to you (except for the deductible).
  • Damage due to power outages. If the power goes out in your area for an extended period of time, a home insurance rider can cover the cost of replacing spoiled food in your refrigerator.

Homeowners insurance is a valuable financial tool designed to protect your home and its contents from damage due to events like:

  • Weather and natural disasters
  • Fire and smoke
  • Theft of personal property
  • Vandalism
