Insurance issues California homeowners should know about

Strawberry weather can be severe at times which means that homeowners in your state may need to be aware of these additional risks and how they impact insurance coverage.

Flood Insurance: Hurricanes and other severe weather can lead to flooding which can do a tremendous amount of damage to a home. Flood damage is almost always excluded from a standard homeowners policy so you have to carry flood insurance in order to be fully protected.

Flood insurance can be pricey, but it can also be a financial lifesaver if your home is damaged or destroyed by a flood. Flood insurance is available via the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or through private insurers.

Windstorm Insurance or Deductible: California is no stranger to hurricanes and these storms can lead to wind damage that may not be covered or triggers a hurricane deductible.

Some standard homeowner policies exclude wind damage caused by hurricanes or other high level windstorms, requiring homeowners to purchase a separate windstorm policy or if windstorm damage is covered, a windstorm deductible may apply.

A windstorm deductible kicks in when a hurricane is declared by National Weather Service. In California, hurricane deductibles apply for damage that occurs from the time a hurricane watch, or warning is issued for any part of California, up to 72 hours after such a watch or warning ends and anytime hurricane conditions exist throughout the state.

Windstorm deductibles are percentage deductibles which means you will pay a percentage of your coverage level as a deductible. As an example, if you are carrying $300,000 in coverage and have a 5 percent hurricane deductible, you will need to cover the first $15,000 of your claim.

Types of homeowners insurance in Strawberry

HO-3: This is the most common type of homeowners insurance being sold in Strawberry, and the United States. This is a standard homeowner policy for a single-family home. This type of policy will protect your home’s structure if it is damaged by any peril, except ones that are specifically excluded in the policy details.

However, your personal possessions are only covered against a specific set of perils. With most policies those covered perils are:

• Theft
• Fire or Lightning
• Explosion
• Smoke
• Freezing
• Vehicles
• Falling Objects
• Volcanic Eruption
• Windstorm or Hail
• Riot or Civil Commotion
• Damage caused by Aircraft
• Vandalism or Malicious Mischief
• Damage due to weight of Ice, Snow, or Sleet
• Sudden & Accidental Tearing Apart, Cracking, Burning, or Bulging
• Sudden & Accidental Damage from Artificially Generated Electric Current
• Accidental Discharge or Overflow of Water from Plumbing, Air conditioning

These policies provide great coverage and almost always come with dwelling, liability, personal property, other structures, and loss of use protection.  It should be noted that all HO-3 policies exclude flooding and earthquake damage, other exclusions usually apply so read the policy carefully.

HO-4: This policy was designed with renters in mind and is more commonly called renters insurance. A renters insurance policy will cover all of your personal property that is in your apartment, up to your coverage limits.

These policies also come with liability coverage which will help pay medical and legal expenses if a guest is injured in your apartment. If they decide to sue, this coverage will pay for your legal defense as well as any settlements or judgments that come out of the lawsuit.

HO-5: This is an upgrade from the HO-3 policy and tends to offer more comprehensive coverage, but at a higher premium. These policies are usually available on newer, more upscale houses. The big difference is that your personal property is covered from all perils except those excluded in the policy while an HO-3 only covers personal property against the perils named in the policy. It also offers replacement cost coverage as standard while an HO-3 will usually have fair market value as standard coverage.
