A reliable home insurance policy will let you rest easy knowing you’re covered. At Berry Curtis Insurance, our insurance professionals will help you and your family tailor an insurance policy specifically for your home.
What Does Home Insurance Cover?
A basic homeowners insurance policy typically includes:
- Dwelling Coverage: Dwelling coverage provides compensation for damages to the physical home and its attached structures caused by fire, wind, hail, lightning, smoke, falling objects, vandalism and more.
- Personal Belongings Coverage: Personal belongings coverage provides compensation if your personal items are lost or damaged due to fire, smoke, theft, vandalism and more.
- Liability: Liability coverage under home insurance covers bodily injury and property damage someone else may suffer on your property. If someone is injured in your home, this insurance can help pay for the victim’s medical bills. It can also protect you from a lawsuit related to certain accidents.
- Additional Living Expenses: Additional living expense (ALE) coverage helps with the costs of temporarily moving in case the home is rendered uninhabitable by a disaster.
Replacement Cost vs Actual Cash Value
You have two options when it comes to personal belongings coverage on your home insurance policy: replacement cost value and actual cash value. This refers to how compensation will be calculated if your file a claim for your personal belongings.
An actual cash value policy will compensate you for your lost items after accounting for depreciation. This means that as the value of your items decreases, so does the amount of compensation you may receive.
A replacement cost value policy will compensate you without accounting for depreciation.

The Importance of Personal Liability Insurance
Imagine something major going wrong in or around your home such as a guest getting hurt or someone’s valuable personal property being seriously damaged. Personal liability insurance makes sure that you are covered in the event legal action is taken against you in such situations. With this coverage, your financial assets are kept safe from the results of any litigation -- for better or worse.
Why You Need Property Insurance
In the event your home experiences devastating weather -- say, a fire, a hailstorm or dangerously heavy snow build-up -- property insurance can keep you protected. In times of crisis, property insurance provides you security when your residence is damaged.
