Home insurance comes in three basic varieties: buildings insurance; buildings and contents insurance; and contents only insurance. The cost of your home insurance will depend on the type of insurance you require, the value of your property if you want buildings insurance, and the value of your possessions. Property values will vary according to location and size, but for home insurance purposes it is important to assess the value of your home not simply by its market value but by the amount to cost to rebuild it should it be destroyed by fire for example or made uninhabitable due to floods. Should such an event occur, you may find that the market value is well below the rebuilding cost and you could end up with a large bill to compensate your mortgage provider.

You can reduce the cost of your home insurance in several ways. Firstly, you can reduce the risk of theft by security measures such as installing an alarm system approved by the National Approvals Council for Security Systems - such an alarm is recognised by many insurance companies as signifying a reduced risk of theft and your home insurance will be reduced as a result. If you reduce the risk of fire by installing smoke alarms, this will also reduce the cost of your home insurance. A no claims bonus also helps to reduce the your home insurance costs as many insurers will reward you with a discount - which can be as much as 20% - if you do not make a claim for a number of years.

There are more specialist types of home insurance available, such as holiday home insurance, flood risk insurance, and contents insurance for student. You can take out landlord insurance if you own properties to rent and low-cost tenant insurance if you rent a property from a social landlord.

Home insurance for buildings depends very much on your personal circumstances, the specific property in question, and the area where the property is located.

Home insurance for contents is usually offered in bands of cover, each band representing the total value of your possessions - the higher the band, the more you have to pay. Local variations as determined by post codes also apply, which means that home insurance premiums for areas that are known to have a high crime rate will be more than those associated with a low crime rate.
