Below we have featured the most common insurance types for homeowners living in or nearby Upatoi:

 Type Description
HO-3

The most common of homeowners coverage is the HO-3. The majority of homeowners carry this type of policy and it covers damage that is caused by all perils unless they are excluded in the body of the policy. Damage that is caused by floods or earthquakes is always excluded on an HO-3 policy but there can be other exclusions as well.

HO-6

HO-8

Upatoi is lucky to have a fair number of historical homes and if you own one, you may need an HO-8 policy. These policy types are specific to older homes where the replacement cost of the house may actually exceed the cash value of the home.

These policies are affordable because the payout levels are less than the actual replacement cost of the house. In most cases, the need for an HO-8 policy arises when the house is more than 40 years old and doesn’t qualify for a HO-3 policy. These policies only cover 11 perils.

HO-4

This policy type was designed for people that rent an apartment. It is often referred to as renters insurance. An HO-4 policy will pay out for damage to your personal property in your apartment and it also offers liability protection in the event that someone is injured in your apartment.

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.
