HOME INSURANCE

Buying a home is a huge step in your life. Whether it’s a one-room condo, a three-flat or a suburban “mansion,” you need to protect it from fire, theft and other hazards or losses. Lakeview Insurance Agency can help you protect your “castle” and other valuables, too.
Homeowners insurance is a package policy. This means that it covers both damage to your property and your liability or legal responsibility for any injuries and property damage you or members of your family cause to other people. This includes damage caused by household pets.
Why do you need homeowners insurance?
It is really all about protecting yourself financially if something unexpected happens to your home or possessions. That’s important because chances are your home is likely one of your largest investments.
-
If your home was destroyed by fire or damaged by a natural disaster, you’d need money to repair or replace it.
-
If a guest in your home is injured, liability protection and medical coverage help pay expenses.
-
If you are a victim of theft and vandalism, it can reimburse you for your loss or pay for repairs.
-
If you are still paying for your home, your lender will require insurance.
It is important to know that homeowners insurance is meant to cover unexpected damage, not routine maintenance. Ask your agent to talk about what is covered and be sure to read your policy so you know exactly what’s included and what is not.
