INSURANCE
TO VALUE
It is important
that your insurance policy covers INSURANCE TO VALUE. That means should
you need to rebuild an exact replacement of your home due to a covered loss,
you would receive full protection.
Determining accurate replacement cost is the single most important step
in the homeowner's insurance process. It prevents the financial burden imposed
by underinsured losses and establishes the amount of insurance available
for other property at your residence including your home's furnishing. After
the value is determined, the accuracy is maintained through inflationary
adjustments made to your policy annually.
Underestimating replacement cost can result in underinsured losses and out-of-pocket
expense. To avoid that penalty, be certain that the value stated on your
insurance policy accurately reflects your home's rebuilding cost. It makes
good sense to insure your house for full replacement cost
CHOOSE
REPLACEMENT COST PROTECTION FOR CONTENTS
If someone steals
your three-year old television, you would expect that your homeowner's policy
would offer to replace it. Right? Unless you are provided replacement cost
coverage, the answer could be less than you expect. A purchase price of
$1,000 three years ago could be depreciated to $700 or less without this
coverage. As you can see, considerable damage to the contents of your home
could mean considerable out-of-pocket expense to replace your possessions
today.
Replacement cost protection provides new for old coverage without any deduction
for age or depreciation on the contents of your home if they are stolen
or damaged. This concept applies to clothing, furniture, electronic and
all other personal property at your residence or away from it.The cost of
this protection is minimal in comparison to the added value it provides,
which makes the selection of REPLACEMENT COST on Contents a smart choice!
INSURING
YOUR MORTGAGE COMMITMENT Most
homeowners have a mortgage. You. no doubt, intend to repay your mortgage
loan from your future earnings. However, in the event of your death or disability,
your income will no longer be available to your family, yet your mortgage
commitment will remain and transfer to them. By securing insurance on your
life, you can guarantee the following:
Upon your death, your family:
Can remain in their home
Will be relieved of financial pressure
Will have time and money available to make informed decisions for the future
While you live:
The insurance company will pay the monthly mortgage if you are disabled
The protection stays with you if you move
The total premium will be return when the mortgage is paid
Insuring your mortgage commitment makes good sense and saves hard earned
money. Protect your home, personal belongings and your family's future.
