What factors into the cost of Homeowners Insurance?
Homeowners insurance policies aren't one size fits all. How much insurance coverage you need and what it will cost you will depend on a number of factors, including the cost to rebuild your property and the value of its contents. The following are a few examples of factors which determine your coverage costs.
- Cost to rebuild – The total replacement cost to repair or rebuild your home and other structures covered by your policy.
- Location – Location, location, location. Crime rates and proximity to potential natural risks may impact your homeowners insurance premium.
- Age and condition – Newer homes with updated plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems can be less expensive to insure.
- Safety devices – Fire prevention devices, leak detection technology and home security systems may qualify you for a discount.
- Deductibles – The deductible you choose will factor into the cost of your policy. While choosing a higher deductible will lower the cost of your premium, you should always make sure you are comfortable with the amount you are responsible for in the event of a claim.
