Less Known Homeowner Insurance Coverages

While most homeowners are aware of the most common homeowner insurance coverages like dwelling and liability, many policies offer additional protections you may not be familiar with but that offer essential protection. Here is a quick rundown of a few of the lesser known coverages:

  • Other Structures: This coverage will protect all other structures on your property that are not your house. This means that if you have a shed, barn, other outbuildings on your property, they are protected under this coverage. It also covers fencing or any other structures on your property that are detached from your home.
    It should be noted that other structures coverage is typically capped at 10 percent of your dwelling coverage. This means that if you are carrying $400,000 in dwelling coverage your other structures coverage is $40,000.
  • Loss of Use: This coverage protects your finances if you are forced out of your home due to a covered peril. As an example, if your home is damaged or destroyed by a fire and you are unable to live there while it is being repaired loss of use coverage will pay for some of the expenses you will incur due to being out of your home such as hotels, restaurants, and even dry cleaning.
  • Medical payments: This coverage will help cover medical bills if someone is injured on your property, regardless of who’s at fault. Coverage limits are usually capped at around $5,000 for this coverage.

Kenvil, NJ Dwelling Coverage Estimate

It is important to calculate your dwelling coverage for your home in Kenvil so you know what type of homeowners insurance coverage you need to cover your replacement cost. It is recommended to have enough dwelling coverage to rebuild your home if it was destroyed by a covered peril.

Please remember that replacement cost coverage does not include the cost of the land, only the price to rebuild your home, which is why we like to help customers by answering a few questions that you may have.

What is the average replacement cost coverage in Kenvil, NJ?

- The average square footage in Kenvil is around 1,622 Sq. Ft. which would cost you around $313,100 to replace the home if you base the home on the price to build per square foot of $193.

Average Building Cost Per Square Foot in Kenvil: $193 (low end)

Average Square Footage in Kenvil: 1,622 Sq. Ft.

None or Very Minor Improvements$193$313,100
Some Additional Upgrades$241$391,375
Major Home Updates or Advancements$290$469,650

The dwelling coverage is calculated by the average cost per square foot ($193) in Kenvil, New Jersey times your heated square footage. Which would equal the cost to rebuild your home minus the cost of the property or land. Some homes will have a higher replacement cost due to home improvements like updated kitchens and bathrooms. Other upgrades may include: granite countertops, hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances. The national square foot average to build a brand new home is around 2500 square feet. So if you are looking to build, and your square footage of your new home is 2500, you are looking at a dwelling coverage premium of around $603,125 (Media price to build of $241 x 2500 sq. ft.) to cover the cost to rebuild your new home.

What is the difference between actual cash value and replacement cost value?

Homeowners insurance is available in both actual cash value (ACV) and replacement cost value (RCV). Knowing the difference is important:

Actual cash value: When valuing your personal possessions, an actual cash value policy will take depreciation into account. This means that your 10-year-old TV will be basically worthless according to your insurance company. While an ACV policy tends to be cheaper, if you have to make a claim you may be disappointed in your claim payout.

Replacement cost value: A RCV policy will replace your possessions with brand new items of similar quality regardless of how old they were at the time they were destroyed. While RCV policies are slightly more expensive, they are well worth the cost if you have to make a claim.
