Home Insurance

Homeowners insurance protects more than your house.

Your house is more than an investment. That’s why homeowners insurance also protects the things that make it feel like home. Coverage includes your belongings and the cost of repairs or rebuilding in a range of disasters, and protects you in cases of personal liability. Get the customized coverage your home deserves with expert help from our agents.

What Homeowners Insurance Can Include

Whether you own a house, townhouse, or modular home, your policy should cover the full cost of rebuilding your home if it’s destroyed. From there, we offer a range of coverages. We’ll help you build a policy that works exactly the way you need.

Residence Protection

This foundational coverage protects the physical building you live in and any connected structures, like a garage or deck. Covered losses include damage from disasters like fire and smoke, wind and hail, vandalism, and frozen pipes.

Personal Property

The cost of replacing all your belongings from theft or damage can add up fast. We’ll help you inventory your home and ensure that the cost of things like furniture, clothing, bicycles, and TVs are covered—even if they’re damaged away from home.

Liability Protection

If you’re personally liable for someone else’s injuries or property damage, the cost of damages could jeopardize your own assets. This protection helps cover these damages as well as legal defense and medical expenses.

Related Structures

Anything not attached to your house needs its own protection. This could include a shed, in-ground pool, stand-alone garage or carport, or fence. Extend your coverage specifically for these structures.

Additional Living Expenses

Some disasters might force you to temporarily move out of your home while it’s repaired. This coverage helps pay the cost of staying in a hotel or short-term apartment.

Medical Payments to Others

You’re responsible for injuries that happen on your property. This type of coverage can help cover the cost of medical expenses for someone who’s injured on your property, such as guests, contractors, or delivery people.

Questions To Ask Your Agent

A standard policy covers your house, your personal belongings, your liability at home and out in the world, and additional living expenses if your home becomes uninhabitable for a time. And there’s a full range of optional coverages for high-dollar items and unique situations. Your local agent can help you identify which coverages make sense for your property.
