Home Insurance Quotes
There are three basic types of home insurance and the amount of information you need to supply will vary in each case. A comprehensive home insurance policy will include buildings insurance and contents insurance. The other two basic types of home insurance are buildings only insurance and contents only insurance.
You will need to take out buildings insurance if you own your own home or are a prospective buyer. The insurer will want to assess the value of your property for home insurance purposes and there are many things they will want to know. To get full value for money out of your home insurance, it is best to value your property on the basis of the re-building costs rather than the market value as property values always fluctuate and the market value may be far less than the costs of re-building. Home insurance for buildings is a must for property owners and if a disaster did happen to occur and your property became uninhabitable for whatever reason, you could end up with a large bill to compensate your mortgage provider if your home insurance does not give adequate cover. To verify the costs of rebuilding your property, the insurer will want to know certain details such as the construction date and the type of materials used in the construction of your property. If the value of your home is based on the market value, this may well give you cheaper home insurance premiums but consider whether it will give you complete peace of mind.
Home insurance for contents usually consists of like for like or new for old replacements should any item be stolen or damaged as a result of an accident. Many people are unaware of the total value of their possessions, but you will have to do a complete assessment to make sure that your home insurance gives you adequate cover. The best way to do this is to list all the rooms in your property, including lofts and cellars (if you have one) and not forgetting any outbuildings such as sheds and garages, utility rooms and anything you may have in the garden. Home insurance for contents can be cheaper if instead of a “new for old” policy you ask for a “contents indemnity” policy. The difference is that a contents indemnity policy will take into account the wear and tear or depreciation of an item when paying out for a replacement. This means that if your damaged item is particularly old, then the amount you would receive from your insurer should the item be damaged or destroyed will fall far short of the costs it will take to replace it.
There are more specialized types of home insurance, for instance home insurance for landlords if you own properties to rent, and home insurance for tenants if you rent your home from a social landlord.
