Homeowners Insurance... we’ve all heard the term used while buying
a home but do you really know what it is? We are here to break it down for you
and to help explain some of the main points.
Homeowners Insurance gives you protection against damages to your
home, protection against natural disasters, theft and other mishaps that might
happen along the way.
Things are going great but then you realize you have a water leak
upstairs that has damaged your first-floor ceilings. Time to use that
homeowner insurance, right? Before you start dialing that phone, make
sure you know what an insurance claim really means and how it can affect you in
the future. An insurance claim has the possibility of raising your home policy
price or it could even raise the rate for the next homeowner of the property. Let
me share my personal story which I definitely do not want you to make this
mistake.
We had a small water leak and it did some ceiling damage.I called my insurance company to talk to the
claim department about potentially making a claim. After realizing my
deductible and the cost for the repair that covered was about the same I decided
not to go forward with a claim BUT they still noted it in my home’s
history.It is a red flag on my home’s
history, may raise my rate and I did not make a claim.
Homeowners insurance is a MUST HAVE FOR SURE but make sure if you
ever make a claim that you find out what it really means for the future.
Our last insurance tip is to SHOP AROUND. Not all insurance
policies are created equal. Inflation has become a new normal that seems
to have affected our day to day living and homeowners’ insurance is no different.
Shopping around every 2 years or so could really benefit your wallet!
