Homeowners insurance is designed to provide financial protection against certain unexpected losses, but understanding exactly what a policy covers is important. Coverage can vary depending on the insurance carrier, policy form, limits, endorsements, and exclusions. CNI Financial & Insurance Services helps San Fernando Valley homeowners compare their options and understand the protection they are purchasing.

Dwelling Coverage

Dwelling coverage generally helps protect the physical structure of your home against covered losses. Your policy will specify the events that are covered, the applicable limits, and any deductibles.

Personal Property Coverage

Your homeowners policy may also provide protection for belongings such as furniture, clothing, electronics, and other personal property. Certain valuable items may have special limits, so additional coverage may be appropriate in some situations.

Personal Liability Coverage

Liability coverage can help provide financial protection when you are legally responsible for certain injuries or property damage involving another person, subject to the terms and limits of the policy.

Additional Living Expenses

If a covered loss makes your home temporarily uninhabitable, your policy may provide coverage for certain additional living expenses while repairs are completed.

What May Not Be Covered?

Homeowners insurance does not cover every possible event. Certain risks may be excluded or require separate coverage. This is one reason it is important to review the details of a policy instead of choosing coverage based only on price.
