It will protect you if your home is damaged by any peril, except ones that are specifically excluded by the policy details. All HO-3 policies exclude flooding and earthquake damage, other exclusions usually apply so read the policy carefully.
  • HO-4: This policy was designed with renters in mind. It covers all of the personal property that you have in your apartment, it also offers liability coverage to protect you if someone is injured in your apartment. Liability protection will cover the cost of a person's medical bills if they are injured in your apartment. If they decide to sue you, this coverage will pay for the cost of your legal defense as well as any settlements or judgments that come out of the lawsuit.
  • HO-5: This is an upgrade from the HO-3 policy and tends to offer more comprehensive coverage but it also costs more. These policies are usually available on newer, more upscale houses.

The big difference is that your personal property is covered from all perils except those excluded in the policy while an HO-3 only covers personal property against the perils named in the policy. It also offers replacement cost coverage as standard while an HO-3 will usually have fair market value as standard coverage.

Elevation Review for Coastal Wind or Flooding Risk

Elevation Details Homeowners Tips
2246 ft. This is the average home elevation in Lake Elsinore, CA

» Elevation is crucial to a homeowners insurance policy because it determines the risk of your home being in a flood zone which is particularly important in a coastal state such as Lake Elsinore, California.

A standard homeowners policy does not cover flood damage. If you live in a flood prone area, you will need to purchase a separate flood to fully protect your home.

Flood insurance can be purchased via the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or in the private market. NFIP policies come with coverage caps and other restrictions so you may need to supplement your flood insurance coverage with a private market policy.

Lake Elsinore, CA Dwelling Coverage Estimate

It is important to calculate your dwelling coverage for your home in Lake Elsinore so you know what type of homeowners insurance coverage you need to cover your replacement cost. It is recommended to have enough dwelling coverage to rebuild your home if it was destroyed by a covered peril.

Please remember that replacement cost coverage does not include the cost of the land, only the price to rebuild your home, which is why we like to help customers by answering a few questions that you may have.

What is the average replacement cost coverage in Lake Elsinore, CA?

- The average square footage in Lake Elsinore is around 1,073 Sq. Ft. which would cost you around $347,550 to replace the home if you base the home on the price to build per square foot of $324.

Minimum Replacement Cost Total: $347,550

Location: Lake Elsinore, California (Riverside County)

Average Building Cost Per Square Foot in Lake Elsinore: $324 (low end)

Average Square Footage in Lake Elsinore: 1,073 Sq. Ft.

Home Improvement StatusPrice per Sq. Ft.Dwelling Coverage
None or Very Minor Improvements$324$347,550
Some Additional Upgrades$405$434,438
Major Home Updates or Advancements$486$521,325

The dwelling coverage is calculated by the average cost per square foot ($324) in Lake Elsinore, California times your heated square footage. Which would equal the cost to rebuild your home minus the cost of the property or land. Some homes will have a higher replacement cost due to home improvements like updated kitchens and bathrooms. Other upgrades may include: granite countertops, hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances. The national square foot average to build a brand new home is around 2500 square feet. So if you are looking to build, and your square footage of your new home is 2500, you are looking at a dwelling coverage premium of around $1,012,500 (Media price to build of $405 x 2500 sq. ft.) to cover the cost to rebuild your new home.

What is the difference between actual cash value and replacement cost value?

Homeowners insurance is available in both actual cash value (ACV) and replacement cost value (RCV). Knowing the difference is important:

Actual cash value: When valuing your personal possessions, an actual cash value policy will take depreciation into account. This means that your 10-year-old TV will be basically worthless according to your insurance company. While an ACV policy tends to be cheaper, if you have to make a claim you may be disappointed in your claim payout.

Replacement cost value: A RCV policy will replace your possessions with brand new items of similar quality regardless of how old they were at the time they were destroyed. While RCV policies are slightly more expensive, they are well worth the cost if you have to make a claim.
