Introduction
- No one ever expects fire to rampage through their home, leaving nothing in its wake but a mound of ash and debris. It does happen, and while there is nothing you can do to prepare for these types of accidents, you can make sure that your home is adequately insured.
Step 1: Talking to an Insurance Agent
- Before you make a commitment on an insurance policy, you will want to sit down and talk with an insurance agent to find out what options and coverage are available to you.
- What will your policy cover?
- Dwelling
- Contents
- Medical costs
- What replacement cost is covered?
- What causes does the policy cover?
- Earthquakes
- Riots
- Acts of war
- Forest fires
- Arson
- Shop around. Do not be persuaded to go with the first agent that offers you a deal. Other companies may have better coverage and even better deals. So do your homework before you commit to a policy.
Step 2: Who Should Buy Fire Insurance?
- That seems a silly question, as everyone should have some kind of fire insurance to cover their losses, but there are areas more prone to fire. People living in these areas should definitely make sure they have full fire coverage.
- Deserts
- Dry areas prone to forest fires
