Home & Auto Insurance — FAQ

Home / Condo / Tenant

What factors impact my home insurance premium?

Location and claims history in your area, building materials & age, replacement cost, coverage limits/deductibles, alarms/monitors, and prior claims.

Actual cash value vs. replacement cost?

Replacement cost covers rebuilding/repairing with similar materials without depreciation. Actual cash value subtracts depreciation, resulting in lower payouts but lower premiums.

Are floods and sewer backup included?

They are usually optional endorsements. Add them if you live in a risk zone or want broader protection. Carefully check limits and deductibles.

Auto

What affects my auto premium?

Driving record, years licensed, vehicle model, usage & mileage, postal code, selected coverages (collision/comprehensive), and deductibles.

Do I need collision & comprehensive?

If your car is financed/leased, the lender may require them. For older vehicles, you might choose liability-only to reduce costs.

How to lower premiums?

Bundle home & auto, increase deductibles, maintain a clean record, consider telematics discounts, and compare quotes at renewal.
