Benefits of Personalized Home, Condo and Tenant Insurance

Home is defined in many ways, a house, apartment, or other shelter that is the usual residence of a person, family, or household; the place in which one’s domestic affections are centered, as in “Home is where the Heart is”.

While life is full of risks, securing your home for your family should not be measured in degrees of risk. The primary reason that you need to buy insurance is to transfer risk. Insurance allows you to transfer financial risks from yourself to an insurance company – buying you peace of mind from possible losses. Protecting your home and its contents through insurance makes it possible for you to avoid taking the financial hit on your own.

Homeowner Insurance is a form of property insurance designed to protect an individual’s home against damages to the house itself, or to possessions in the home. Homeowners insurance also provides liability coverage against accidents in the home or on the property. Condominium insurance differs from that of conventional homes. Coverage is available under two separate policies; that of each unit owner, and that of the condominium corporation. Renter’s Insurance is a form of property insurance that provides coverage for a policy holder’s belongings and liability within a rental property.

All home insurance (homeowner’s insurance, condo insurance and renter’s insurance) will include coverage for your belongings or property (contents), your personal liability (should you be legally required to pay damages), and, if you’re a homeowner, your house (building). It may also include other protections, like living expenses in case loss or damage forces you to leave your home. Financial institutions usually require you to have insurance if you have a home loan.

It’s also important to make sure you’ve got the right amount of coverage for your home, matching the replacement cost of your property. You should also consider coverage for supplemental cost and expenses.
