The idea of not maintaining insurance on your home is unacceptable. That’s why you’ve had the same plan in place ever since you bought the property. With the time to renew for another term approaching, it might be a good idea to go over your Milwaukee homeowners insurance and see if making a change would be in your best interests. Here are some reasons why this evaluation is worth the time and effort.
There’s no doubt that the policy terms and conditions were adequate when you secured the coverage. Is that still true? Think of what you’ve done to improve the place over the years. Perhaps you added on a room or two or finished the basement or attic into the living space. What you have in place may no longer be enough to cover the replacement cost if a covered event occurs.
Another point to consider is the range of coverage itself. In years past, you never thought about what might happen if something went wrong with the plumbing running from the street to your home. After a neighbor or two had this problem, and you found out how much they had to pay out of pocket, it makes sense to check and see if your plan includes protections for this sort of thing. If not, a change is in order now.
Last, there’s the matter of what you currently pay for your Milwaukee homeowners insurance policy. That’s something you’ve never questioned before. Do take the time to find out if making a change would result in maintaining the same level of coverage but at a lower premium. You’ll either find out that the policy is still a great deal, or that there’s something out there to investigate further.
Pull out your copy of the policy today and begin going over it carefully. Jot down any questions or concerns that you come across. Once you have answers to those questions, it will be easier to decide what should happen next.
