HOME INSURANCE

Protect Your Home. Protect Your Peace of Mind.

Your home is more than a building. It is where your family lives, your belongings are kept, and many of life’s important moments happen. Homeowners insurance can help protect your financial interests when your property is damaged or destroyed by a covered peril.

Depending on the policy, homeowners insurance can provide coverage for the dwelling, personal property, liability, and additional living expenses following a covered loss. Coverage, exclusions, limits, and deductibles vary by policy and insurer.

WHAT CAN HOME INSURANCE COVER?

Protection Designed Around Your Home

Every property is different. Understanding the major areas of homeowners coverage can help you identify what your policy protects and where additional coverage may be needed.

  • Dwelling Protection

    Coverage designed to help repair or rebuild the physical structure of your home following a covered loss, subject to the policy's terms and limits.

  • Personal Property

    Coverage for eligible belongings inside your home, such as furniture, appliances, electronics, and clothing.

  • Personal Liability

    May help protect you financially if someone is injured on your property or you are legally responsible for certain covered property damage or injury.

  • Additional Living Expenses

    If a covered loss makes your home uninhabitable, this coverage may help with certain additional expenses while you are temporarily displaced, subject to policy limits.

  • Other Structures

    May provide coverage for certain structures separate from your main home, such as a detached garage, shed, or fence, depending on the policy.

  • Medical Payments to Others

    Some homeowners policies include coverage for certain medical expenses when a guest is injured on your property, subject to the policy terms.
