How Home Insurance Works

When you are a homeowner, it’s vital that you have home insurance to protect your future. If you own a home and need insurance for it, give us a call at JC Demo Insurance Group in Matthews, NC to find out more. 

Protection for Your Home

Home insurance protects your home itself. It will pay for repairs that are needed due to covered incidents that happen to your home. These may be disasters, accidents, etc. Without home insurance, all of those repair bills, and even the cost of rebuilding, would be yours to pay. It’s important to keep home insurance for as long as you live in your home because you never know when disaster is going to strike. 

Coverage for Your Possessions

The things that you own in your home are worth a lot and your home insurance protects them as well. If a serious incident were to happen to ruin your things or badly damage them, your home insurance could pay to either repair or replace the items, whichever is needed. This coverage is vitally important, as replacing all of the things in a home is outside the budget of most people. Having funds to replace items is also a good way to be able to move on quickly after a destructive incident. 

Protection Against Liability

When thinking about home insurance, many people think about the protection given to their home and their belongings, but few think about liability protection. With this coverage, when someone has an accident in your home, that accident can be paid for instead of the person having to sue you for the money for medical bills and lost wages. This is important coverage for protecting your finances.

Required Auto Insurance in North Carolina

When you have a vehicle in North Carolina, it is required to have the coverage mandated by state law. It’s also the law that you must have proof of your insurance when asked for it. To get the auto insurance that you need, give us a call at JC Demo Insurance Group in Matthews, NC.

Bodily Injury Liability

This coverage will cover accidents that are your fault when someone else is injured by the accident. The state requires you to have at least the required minimum amount for one person who gets injured in an accident. There is another number that is required for two or more people who become injured in the accident. 

Property Damage Liability

There is a set minimum amount of this coverage required for all motorists. This coverage pays for the damage done to someone else’s property in an accident that you are at fault for. 

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

This is another required type of coverage that is helpful when someone who causes an accident doesn’t have enough insurance to pay for your injuries and property damage, or they simply have no insurance at all. This coverage also covers the injuries and damage caused by a hit-and-run driver.  The amount of this that you get is generally tied to the limit of your bodily injury liability protection. 

Other Coverage

When you get all of these coverage types, there is no coverage for damage done to your vehicle if you were the cause of an accident. There is also no coverage for other incidents that can happen to your vehicle when it’s off the road. Many people add collision coverage and comprehensive coverage to cover these situations.
