What is homeowners insurance?

Homeowners insurance is a contract between you and your insurance company that protects you against financial loss in the event of an accident or disaster involving your home.

Liability protection

Homeowners insurance policies not only provide coverage for your home, but also liability protection, or legal protection, against lawsuits for bodily injury or property damage that you or your family members may cause to other people. This protection also pays for damage caused by your pets.

Condo and renters insurance

Condo and renter’s insurance typically covers your belongings, liability, and certain parts of the interior structure as defined by the by-laws or proprietary lease.

Types of homes we cover

Houses

Condos

Rented Apartments

What is covered under a homeowners insurance policy?

Standard homeowners insurance policies insure your house and your belongings in the event of a destructive event. Destructive events covered in a standard homeowners policy include:

Fire or lightning

Windstorm or hail

Explosion

Damage caused by aircraft or vehicles

Smoke

Vandalism and theft

There are four major events not covered, but that can be purchased as separate insurance to complement your homeowner’s policy. These are: floods, earthquakes, maintenance damage, and sewer backup.

Homeowners insurance add-ons

Homeowners insurance has many add-ons that can give you extra protection. A few of the homeowners insurance add-ons are: swimming pool coverage, equipment breakdown coverage, and water backup.

Additional living expenses

In the event of a disaster or accident displacing you from your home, homeowners insurance also covers your temporary relocation costs while repairs are underway. Additional living expenses covers hotel bills, restaurant meals, and other costs that are above your usual living expenses.

This coverage has limits; the limits can be both time and budget constrained. Once you go over the amount given or the time allotted in your additional living expenses coverage, your costs come out-of-pocket. However, this coverage is completely separate from the amount available to rebuild or repair your home; you are still covered to repair your home, up to the policy limit.
