When you purchase a home, if you have a mortgage, the lending company will require at least basic home insurance coverage to secure your loan. Whether you choose basic or comprehensive, the coverage amount you purchase should factor in the cost of your home and the value of your personal belongings.
Be aware that if you live in an area that is high risk for flooding or earthquakes, you will need to purchase additional coverage for these threats. Earthquake and flood insurance are not included in a standard home insurance policy.
It’s helpful to take an inventory of your personal items and their estimated value. This will provide you with the amount of coverage you need, as well as serve as a record of your items should they be damaged or stolen.
