Rental Properties
Your investment properties need special coverage - coverage that not only protects your investments, but which will not overlap with coverage you may have already purchased under your home policy.

We offer a Dwelling Fire Special Form Policy, which protects your dwelling and other buildings such as sheds and garages from "all risks," unless specifically excluded.

Or, we have our Dwelling Fire Broad Form Policy to protect your property from losses specifically listed. Some examples of losses covered are:
  • Collapse
  • Smoke
  • Explosion
  • Vandalism Fire
  • Weight of ice/snow
  • Hail
  • Windstorm
  • Lightning
In addition, if your property were unfit to rent due to a loss, Fair Rental Value coverage can be included to reimburse you for up to twelve months of lost rent as well as protection for other structures on the property if desired.

Flood Insurance is catastrophic insurance that covers your dwelling and/or contents in the event of disastrous flooding or rising of ground water. Most homeowner’s do not realize that floods are not covered by their homeowner’s policy. Rates vary according to the location of the property.

Earthquake
Direct damages to your dwelling due to earthquakes are not covered under the standard homeowner’s insurance policy. If you do live in a part of the country with the possibility of earthquake activity, you may want to consider adding an earthquake endorsement to your homeowner’s insurance policy. This endorsement will cover damages due to earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions and other earth movements.

Comprehensive and Collision
Comprehensive and Collision coverage covers the cost to repair or replace your vehicle if it is stolen or damaged in an accident, regardless of who is at fault. You select a deductible for each coverage, and once the deductible is met, you are covered for the remaining damage.

Under Comprehensive Coverage, you are covered for damage to your vehicle caused by an event other than a collision, such as fire, theft or vandalism.

Limited to a specific dollar amount, Medical Expenses includes reasonable charges for first aid, medical, funeral, surgical, x-ray, dental, ambulance, hospital, rehabilitation, professional nursing services and prosthetic devices. In some states, Medical Payments only applies after other medical insurance is exhausted.

While similar to Medical Payments, BRB also includes:
  • Work loss benefits including Loss of Wages if due to a covered auto accident
  • Survivor’s loss benefits to dependents
Other Options to Consider:
  • Full Glass Coverage – eliminates deductible for a covered auto glass loss
  • Agreed Amount – establishes the value of the vehicle before a loss occurs

Antique Autos
Vintage or Classic Autos that are used for recreation, club events, special excursions and driven less than 5,000 miles a year should be covered by a “Collector and/or Antique Car” Insurance program.
If you and your automobile qualify, the premiums are usually a fraction of the cost of a standard insurance policy. Insurance company underwriting guidelines may include driving usage, special care for the car (such as how it is stored), good driving records, and whether there are any youthful drivers.
