FAQ
Is home insurance mandatory?
What information do I need to get a quote?
To get the best price and the right coverage, we’ll need some basic information about you and where you live. It’s okay, they’re not super hard questions or anything. Questions may include:
- When would you need your coverage to start?
- What type of home do you own or rent? (House, Condo, Townhouse, Apartment, Cottage, etc.)
- Where is your home located?
- What is the size and age of your home?
- What is the total value of the property in your home?
- What material is your home made of and what is the condition?
- What is your insurance and claim history?
The questions really depend on the type of home you own or rent, and the amount of coverage you need.
How do insurance companies decide insurance rates?
For homeowner insurance, some factors that affect your premiums include: where you live, the replacement cost of your home, materials used to build your home, the age of your home and the coverages you need.
For car insurance, some factors that affect your premiums include: where you live, the type of car you drive, your insurance history, if you commute to work, and any optional coverages you select.
What does home insurance cover?
But you can also set limits and add extra coverages depending on your scenario. For example, you may live in a region that is prone to severe weather and require Sewer Backup or Overland Water coverage on your policy for proper protection.
It’s also important to understand things your policy doesn’t cover. For example, damage related to proper maintenance and service of your home is not included. And some personal belongings may have a maximum value on how much you can claim.
A lot to chew on for sure. But you can shop for select products online and customize your coverage options, or we can help you build a home insurance policy that covers everything you need. Either way, #winning.
