Homeowners

If you have tangible assets, you need the protection of a homeowner's policy. These policies cover you in a home or an apartment, whether you are an owner or a renter. A well-written homeowner's policy will pay to replace any of your personal property that is destroyed in a fire or other disaster. The policy will also be your first line of defense against a lawsuit from someone injured at your home.

The cost of this coverage is determined by many rating factors. The quality of the coverage, however, is determined by the quality of the insurer and whether the policy is written on a named perils or all-risk basis. A named-perils policy covers only those losses specifically cited in the contract. The all-risk policy works the opposite way -- unless a peril is specifically excluded, coverage is provided. The all-risk policy is broader and the burden of proof is on the carrier not you in the event of a loss.

Condo

Your condo is probably the single most important investment you have. So you want the best protection at a reasonable cost. With our policy, you'll get broad coverage for your condo and personal belongings. . . even your boat! And take advantage of special safety discounts, too.

For just pennies a day, get special protection for valuable items, electronics and more. You can also combine your condo and auto insurance into one package that can save dollars, while providing extra coverage.

Renters

As a renter, you need to protect your personal property against theft and damage. Our renters insurance is hard to beat for convenience and value. Plus, we'll assure you the peace of mind you need for your valuable items and electronics.

Flood

Did you know that your homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage? Insurance against flood must be separately obtained. A flood insurance policy also reimburses you for the work that you and other family members did to sandbag your homes, move furniture and remove debris.

FEMA's maps are important when it comes to flood insurance because if they show that your home sits in a 100-year flood plain, you must buy federal flood insurance in order to get a mortgage. If you live outside a high-risk zone, or if you no longer have a mortgage, flood insurance is optional.
