Understanding the Importance of Homeowners Insurance
What is It?
Why Do I Need It?
Mortgage lenders require you to purchase homeowner’s insurance as part of your mortgage agreement. If you are able to buy a house outright with no mortgage, it’s not required. However, even when insurance isn’t mandated, you may decide to purchase a policy as a cost-effective way to avoid financial hardship in a disaster.
Who Is It For?
Anyone who owns a single-family home or multi-family residence can benefit from homeowners insurance. Indeed, affordable premiums will allow you to have the protection you need if damage occurs.
Homeowners Insurance HO-3 Policy
An HO-3 Home Insurance policy is designed to protect your home and property in the event of unexpected disasters. It’s the most common choice for Massachusetts homeowners. The HO-3 covers your home and additional surrounding structures. This means unattached buildings like sheds and garages are covered too.
Coverage Determined
Most HO-3 policies are based on replacement cost. This means reimbursement for a claim is based on the current cost of repairs and replacement instead of the cost you originally paid. Thus, you will work closely with an experienced agent to determine the amount of coverage needed to repair or replace your home.

Property Coverages
More About Personal Property Coverage
Personal property losses are generally settled on your possessions’ actual cash value at the time of your loss. However, you can choose a replacement cost option for your possessions as well. With replacement cost, you would be reimbursed for replaced items after your deductible is paid.
If you have items that aren’t sufficiently covered by your main homeowner’s policy, you can purchase additional policies. Pieces of high value Fine Art, antiques, and other rare items would qualify. Ask our experienced agents about a personal articles policy.
Here are some specific items and reimbursement amounts within the personal property coverage:
- Money and coin collections: $200
- Securities and stamps: $1,000
- Manuscripts: $1,000
- Theft of jewelry, watches, and fur: $1,000
- Watercraft: $1,000
- Trailers: $1,000
- Personal computer coverage: $2,500
- Theft of silverware and goldware: $2,500
- Trading cards, comic books, and memorabilia: $1,000
- Theft of cameras, tools, or firearms: $2,000
- Trees, shrubs, and plants: $500

Enhance Your Coverage with Optional Insurance Riders or Insurance Policies
There are a variety of options when deciding the coverage you need for your home. The policy you choose needs to be broad enough to cover the cost of repairing or replacing your home and possessions in the event of a loss or significant damage. Here are some things to consider.
Cost of Homeowner's Insurance
in Massachusetts
It is recommended that you get multiple home insurance quotes to ensure you find the best policy. Home insurance costs vary significantly based on your coverage level, with prices ranging from $800 to $1,700 annually. The average cost in Massachusetts is about $1,320 per year. This makes Massachusetts the 38th most expensive state to insure a house. However, the price also varies depending on which city or town you live in.
Though there is a state average, the price naturally also varies based on the size of your house. Your home’s value is a crucial factor since your policy must have sufficient coverage to rebuild and restore your home.
Here’s a final interesting thing to think about with regards to policy average costs. Insurance prices go up when there are claims paid out. Massachusetts winters are often severely cold, and this is when homes are most vulnerable to damage.

What’s The Advantage of Comparing My Insurance Policy?
When you send us a copy of your policy, our team has an opportunity to get a snapshot of your current insurance coverage, discounts, and added riders on your existing insurance policy.
Where Do I Find a Copy of My Insurance Policy?
Insurance companies send you a copy of your insurance policy annually and if any changes to your policy have been made during the year. However, if you are unable to locate your policy, your insurance company or insurance agent should be able to send you a duplicate copy via email, fax, or mail.
What Happens When You Upload Your Policy?
Once we receive your uploaded policy one of our team members begins reviewing your policy. We will then contact you to discuss your coverage options. Every insurance company has different underwriting guidelines and offers different coverages and rates. Be advised while we try our best to quote with the information provided it still may be necessary to obtain additional information from you to prepare the most accurate rate.
