Mobile
Home Insurance
A top-quality
mobile home insurance policy can provide you with a measure
of financial security in an uncertain world, and help protect
your home, your possessions, your family and your lifestyle.
To learn more about what you should consider when purchasing
insurance for your mobile home, read on.
What
to look for in mobile home insurance
For the
most security, a mobile home insurance policy – like
all property/casualty policies – should do two things:
- It
should pay for certain kinds of accidental damage to your
home, belongings, or other structures. Coverage for this
kind of damage is called physical damage coverage.
- It
should protect you against claims or lawsuits filed against
you by people who are accidentally hurt by your actions
or because of your activities. Coverage for these kinds
of claims and lawsuits is called liability coverage.
Most mobile
home insurance policies provide these two basic kinds of coverage.
However, the amount and degree of coverage can vary dramatically
from one policy to another. That’s why it’s so
important to compare policies before buying.
Other
things to consider
Be sure
to check the deductibles and coverage limits in a policy,
too. A deductible is the portion of the loss that you agree
to pay out of your own pocket. A coverage limit is the maximum
amount a company will pay for a covered loss. Obviously, all
other things being equal, a policy with lower deductibles
and higher limits would be preferred. However, lower deductibles
and higher limits can result in higher premium costs.
Then there
are the intangibles. Things like claim service, company reputation
and accessibility can make a big difference in which policy
will give you real peace of mind. You want to make sure that
the company behind the policy has the dedicated personnel
and financial resources to be there when you need them most.
