Shopping Information
home
Imagine if everything inside your home (clothes, furniture, appliances, children’s toys, CDs, DVDs, etc.) suddenly vanished. How much do you think it would cost to replace those things if they were destroyed in a fire? What if a thief took just one valuable possession, like a laptop computer or stereo? If your home is not protected by insurance, where will you get the money to replace its contents – or a whole new home – if disaster strikes?

Before buying a homeowner’s insurance policy, it is important to:

  • Identify the kind of policy and coverage you really need
  • Compare policies from different companies to find the best values
