Home Insurance FAQ
What does home insurance actually cover?

A standard home insurance policy covers your home’s structure, personal belongings, personal liability, and additional living expenses if a covered loss displaces you. The specific risks covered depend on your policy type and the coverages you select.

Is home insurance required by law?

Home insurance is not required by law, but most mortgage lenders require you to carry a policy as a condition of your loan to protect their financial interest in the property. Homeowners who own their property outright are not legally obligated to carry coverage, though it is strongly recommended.

How is my home insurance coverage amount determined?

Your coverage amount is based on the estimated replacement cost of your home, what it would cost to rebuild it from the ground up at current labor and material prices, not its market value or purchase price. An insurance agent can help you calculate the right coverage amount based on your home’s size, construction type, and features.

Does standard home insurance cover floods?

A standard home insurance policy does not cover flood damage and must be purchased as a separate policy through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or a private insurer. If your home is in a designated flood zone, your mortgage lender may require you to carry flood insurance.

Motorcycle Insurance FAQ
Why do I need a separate motorcycle insurance policy if I already have auto insurance?

Motorcycle insurance is a separate policy from auto insurance because motorcycles carry different risks, coverage needs, and rating factors than passenger vehicles. A standard auto policy typically excludes motorcycles, so relying on your car insurance to cover your bike could leave you exposed in an accident.

Can I reduce my motorcycle coverage during the off-season?

If you only ride during certain months, some insurers offer the option to adjust coverage while your motorcycle is in storage, often by keeping comprehensive coverage in place to protect against theft, fire, or vandalism while dropping liability and collision. Coverage options vary by insurer, so it’s worth speaking with your agent to see what’s available in your area.

Are there discounts available for motorcycle insurance?

Many insurers offer discounts for things like completing a motorcycle safety course, bundling your motorcycle policy with your home or auto insurance, being a mature rider, or having a clean driving record. Discounts vary by insurer, so check your coverage or talk with your agent.

What is the difference between agreed value and actual cash value coverage for a motorcycle?

Actual cash value coverage pays the depreciated value of your motorcycle at the time of a total loss, which may be less than what you paid for it. Agreed value coverage means you and the insurance company agree on a payout amount upfront, which can be especially valuable for custom, vintage, or collectible motorcycles. Speaking with your agent can help you determine which option fits your bike.

Workers' Compensation Insurance FAQ
Do sole proprietors and business owners need workers' compensation insurance?

Requirements vary by state, but sole proprietors and business owners without employees are generally not required to carry workers’ compensation insurance. Some choose to add coverage anyway to help protect against the costs of a work-related injury, especially when clients, contracts, or licensing boards require it.

Does workers' compensation insurance cover independent contractors?

A standard workers’ compensation policy generally covers employees, not independent contractors, who are typically expected to carry their own coverage. Misclassifying a worker as a contractor when they should be an employee can expose your business to claims and penalties, so it’s worth reviewing worker classifications with a licensed agent.

Does workers' compensation insurance cover remote employees?

Workers’ compensation insurance generally covers employees who are injured while performing job-related duties, whether they’re at the office, at a client site, or working from home. Coverage typically applies as long as the injury occurs in the course of their work, so it’s worth having clear remote work policies and reviewing your coverage with a licensed agent.

What is the difference between workers' compensation insurance and general liability insurance?

Workers’ compensation insurance covers injuries and illnesses to your employees that arise from their job. General liability insurance covers third-party claims of bodily injury and property damage, such as a customer being injured at your business. The two protect against different risks, and many businesses carry both.

Cyber Liability Insurance FAQ
What is cyber liability insurance?

Cyber liability insurance is a specialized policy that helps cover the risks your business faces from an information breach. It may help cover expenses associated with a cyber-attack, and some policies also include media liability coverage, which can help with claims such as inadvertent copyright infringement.

What does cyber liability insurance cover?

A cyber liability policy may help cover many of the expenses associated with a cyber-attack, including notifying customers and clients of the data breach, restoring your business’s website, addressing extortion attempts, and paying damages to clients, customers, and suppliers. Coverage varies by policy, so it’s important to review your specific policy with your agent.

Does cyber liability insurance cover loss of business income?

Some commercial cyber liability policies may cover loss of business while your systems are compromised or unavailable. Because dealing with the aftermath of a cyber-attack can temporarily close your business, this coverage can help offset the income you lose while getting your systems back online. Waiting periods and how income loss is calculated vary, so it’s worth reviewing the coverage with your agent.

What types of cyber-attacks does cyber liability insurance cover?

Cyber liability insurance may help cover a range of common cyber-attacks, including data breaches, ransomware and extortion attempts, phishing scams, social engineering attacks, and denial-of-service attacks that take your systems offline. Coverage varies by policy, so it’s important to review your specific policy with your agent to understand which types of attacks are included.

Commercial Property Insurance FAQ
What is the difference between commercial property insurance and a business owner's policy?

Commercial property insurance is a standalone policy that protects your business’s physical assets, while a business owner’s policy, or BOP, typically bundles commercial property coverage together with general liability insurance into one convenient policy. A BOP may be a good fit if you’re looking to protect both your property and your liability under one policy, while a standalone commercial property policy may be better suited for businesses with more complex property needs.

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

Replacement cost coverage pays to replace damaged property with new property of a similar kind and quality, without factoring in depreciation. Actual cash value coverage pays the depreciated value of the property at the time of the loss, which may be significantly less than what it costs to replace. The right choice depends on your business’s situation, so it’s worth reviewing your options with a licensed agent.

Does commercial property insurance cover lost income?

Commercial property policies may include business interruption coverage, which can help replace lost income when part or all of your business is temporarily unable to operate due to a covered loss. Waiting periods and how income loss is calculated vary, so it’s worth reviewing the specifics with your agent.

Does commercial property insurance cover flood damage?

A standard commercial property insurance policy does not cover flood damage and must be purchased as a separate policy through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or a private insurer. Speak with your agent to determine whether you need flood coverage to ensure your property is properly protected.

Commercial Flood Insurance FAQ
What does commercial flood insurance actually cover?

Commercial flood insurance covers two separate things: your building and its contents, each with its own limit. Through the NFIP, coverage caps at $500,000 for the building and $500,000 for your business’s contents, such as furniture, equipment, and inventory. Payouts are typically based on actual cash value, meaning depreciation is factored in, rather than the full cost to replace what was lost. Your agent can walk you through how these limits and valuation rules apply to your specific policy.

Is my business required to carry flood insurance?

In most cases, no. But if your business has a mortgage and the building sits in a high-risk flood zone in a community that participates in the NFIP, federal law generally requires your lender to make sure it’s covered. Outside a high-risk zone, coverage typically isn’t required, though that doesn’t mean the risk is zero. Check with your lender and agent to confirm whether coverage is required for your building.

What happens when you file a commercial flood insurance claim?

Filing a commercial flood claim starts with documenting the damage and contacting your insurer, which will send an adjuster to inspect the property and assess the loss. Depending on your policy, the payout may be based on actual cash value, which accounts for depreciation, so it’s worth understanding how your coverage is valued before a loss happens. Keeping records of your building and contents in advance can help the process move faster.

What determines the cost of commercial flood insurance?

Commercial flood insurance premiums are shaped by factors like your property’s flood zone, elevation, construction type, and the coverage limits and deductible you choose. Because pricing can range widely, from a few hundred dollars to several thousand a year, it’s worth getting a specific quote rather than estimating from a general range. Your agent can explain what’s driving your premium and what type of savings may be available to you.

Flood Insurance FAQ
Is flood insurance required by law?

Flood insurance generally isn’t required by law, but if your home is in a high-risk flood zone and you have a mortgage, your lender typically requires you to carry coverage. Outside a high-risk zone, coverage usually isn’t required, though as we’ve covered, that doesn’t mean the risk is zero.

What does a flood insurance policy actually cover?

A flood policy generally covers two separate things: your home’s structure and your personal belongings, each with its own coverage limit. Under the NFIP, building coverage caps at $250,000, and contents coverage at $100,000 for a typical home. Contents claims are typically settled based on actual cash value, which factors in depreciation. It’s worth talking to your agent about how that could affect a claim, especially if you need more than the coverage limit.

Is there a waiting period before my flood coverage starts?

Yes, most new flood policies have a 30-day waiting period before coverage takes effect. There are a couple of exceptions, though: if your lender requires flood insurance as part of a mortgage closing, coverage can typically start right away. It’s still smart not to wait until a storm is in the forecast to get covered. That’s part of why it’s smart to get flood coverage in place well ahead of storm season, rather than waiting until a storm is already in the forecast.

Can renters buy flood insurance?

Yes. If you rent your home, you can typically purchase a flood policy to cover your personal belongings, even though your landlord is usually responsible for insuring the building itself.

Watercraft Insurance FAQ
Does my homeowners insurance cover my boat?

Most homeowners policies offer only limited coverage for small watercraft, and many exclude larger or motorized boats entirely. Jet skis and other personal watercraft typically aren’t covered under a homeowners policy, no matter their size, so a standalone watercraft policy is generally the better way to protect them. A licensed agent can help you understand exactly what your homeowners policy does and doesn’t cover, so you’re not left with a gap.

Is watercraft insurance required by law?

Watercraft insurance generally isn’t required by state law, though your lender may require it if you’re financing your boat. That said, your lender may require it if you’re financing your boat, and many marinas require proof of liability coverage before they’ll let you dock or store your vessel there. Requirements vary by state, lender, and marina, so it’s worth confirming with your agent which requirements apply to you and your vessel.

What factors affect the cost of watercraft insurance?

The cost of watercraft insurance typically depends on the type, size, age, and value of your boat, its horsepower or speed, where and how often you use it, and your boating experience and claims history. A licensed agent can walk you through how these factors apply to your specific boat and help you find the right coverage at the right price.

Does watercraft insurance cover my boat during the off-season?

Many watercraft policies include a lay-up period, a set stretch of time when your boat is stored and not in use, which can adjust your coverage and premium accordingly. Coverage during lay-up often shifts to protect against risks like fire or theft while excluding liability, since the boat isn’t out on the water. Lay-up terms vary by policy.

Business Interruption Insurance FAQ
Is business interruption insurance a standalone policy?

Most of the time, business interruption coverage is not sold on its own. It’s typically added to a commercial property policy or included as part of a business owner’s policy (BOP), since the coverage responds to the same kinds of covered losses that damage your property. Because the packaging can vary by insurer, it’s worth reviewing your policy to confirm that business interruption coverage is in place.

Does business interruption insurance require physical damage to my property?

In most cases, yes. Business interruption insurance generally applies only when your business is forced to shut down because of direct physical damage from a covered loss, such as a fire or a storm. Losses that don’t involve physical damage to your property may not trigger coverage, and some causes of loss can be excluded altogether. Reviewing your policy with a licensed agent is the best way to understand exactly what does and doesn’t apply.

How long does the restoration period last?

The restoration period varies by policy, but it commonly lasts anywhere from a few weeks to a year or more. This is the length of time your coverage helps pay operating expenses while your business is being repaired or rebuilt after a covered loss. Because every business recovers at a different pace, it’s important to review your policy limits with a licensed agent to make sure the restoration period reflects how long your business would realistically need.

How much business interruption coverage should I carry?

The right amount of coverage generally depends on your monthly operating expenses and how long it would take to get your business up and running after a loss. A common starting point is to add up your fixed monthly costs (payroll, rent, loan payments, utilities, and taxes) and multiply that by the number of months you’d want to be protected. From there, a licensed agent can help you set limits that match your business’s income and recovery timeline.

Auto Insurance FAQ
What is the difference between liability-only and full-coverage auto insurance?

Liability-only coverage pays for damage and injuries you cause to others but does not cover your own vehicle. Full coverage adds comprehensive and collision coverage to your policy, which pays for damage to your own vehicle from accidents, theft, and other covered losses.

How does auto insurance work if you are in an accident?

After an accident, you file a claim with your insurance company. They assign an adjuster to assess the damage and determine what your policy covers. Depending on who is at fault and what coverage you carry, your insurer will pay for repairs, medical bills, or other covered losses up to your policy limits, minus your deductible.

What are the different parts of an auto insurance policy?

A standard auto policy typically includes several coverages:

  • Property Damage Liability and Bodily Injury for harm you cause to others.
  • Collision and Comprehensive Coverage protects your own vehicle.
    Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage protects you when the at-fault driver doesn’t have adequate insurance.
Why does your driving record affect your auto insurance premium?

Insurance companies use your driving record to assess how likely you are to file a claim. Accidents and violations signal higher risk and result in higher premiums, while a clean record typically qualifies you for lower rates and may make you eligible for safe-driver discounts.

Business Owner's Insurance FAQ
Who needs a business owner's policy?

A BOP is generally a good fit for small to mid-sized businesses that own or lease a physical space, interact with clients, or face a risk of property damage or injury in their day-to-day operations. Eligibility varies by insurer, so speaking with an agent can help you determine if a BOP is the right fit for your business.

What does a business owner's policy not cover?

Most BOPs do not cover employee injuries, claims arising from professional advice, or incidents involving company-owned vehicles, as those risks are typically handled by policies such as workers’ compensation, errors and omissions, and commercial auto insurance. Exclusions can vary, so it’s important to review your specific policy with a licensed agent to make sure your business is covered.

What is the difference between a BOP and a commercial package policy?

A BOP is a pre-bundled policy designed to help small- to mid-sized businesses protect against common risks at a generally lower cost. In contrast, a commercial package policy offers more flexibility and is typically better suited for larger businesses with more complex needs. The right choice depends on your business’s size, industry, and unique situation.

Can a business owner's policy be customized for my industry?

Many insurers offer industry-specific endorsements and optional coverages that can be added to a BOP to better protect your specific business. Coverage options vary by insurer, so working with a licensed agent is the best way to find a policy that fits your unique needs.

General Liability Insurance FAQ
What is the difference between general liability and professional liability insurance?

General liability insurance typically covers third-party claims of bodily injury, property damage, and advertising injury, while professional liability insurance, also known as errors and omissions insurance (E&O), may help cover claims from a client suffering a financial loss due to your professional advice or services.

Does general liability insurance cover lawsuits?

If your business is sued for a covered claim, general liability insurance may help pay for legal fees, court costs, and settlements up to your policy limits, even if the claim turns out to be unfounded. Coverage varies by policy, so it’s important to review your specific policy with a licensed agent to understand what’s included.

What is the difference between general liability insurance and a business owners policy?

A business owners policy, or BOP, typically bundles general liability insurance together with commercial property coverage into one convenient policy, while a standalone general liability policy covers only third-party injury and property damage claims. A BOP may be a good fit for your business if you’re looking to protect both your liability and your property under one policy.

How much general liability coverage does my business need?

The right amount of coverage generally depends on your industry, the size of your business, your location, and any coverage requirements in your client contracts or leases. Speaking with a licensed agent is the best way to help make sure your coverage limits are the right fit for the risks your business faces day to day.

Home and Auto Bundle Insurance FAQ
What does it mean to bundle home and auto insurance?

Bundling home and auto insurance means purchasing both policies from the same insurance company. Many insurers offer a discount when you do, and managing your coverage can be easier when everything is with one carrier.

How much can you save by bundling home and auto insurance?

Bundling home and auto insurance can save you anywhere from 5% to 15% or more on your premiums through a multi-policy discount. Savings vary by insurer and policy, so it’s a good idea to compare bundled and individual rates to see how much you could save.

Is bundling home and auto insurance always the cheapest option?

Not always. While bundling often lowers your overall premium, it isn’t always the least expensive option. Some insurers may require you to carry certain policies to qualify for the bundled rate, which could mean paying for more coverage than you need. Comparing bundled and individual quotes can help you find the best value for your situation.

Can you bundle auto insurance if you don't own a home?

Yes. If you have renters insurance, you may be able to bundle that policy with your auto insurance and still qualify for a multi-policy discount, just like a homeowner could.

Umbrella Insurance FAQ
What is umbrella insurance?

Umbrella insurance is an extra liability policy that provides additional protection when a claim exceeds the liability limits on your existing auto, home, or watercraft policy. It pays out after your main policy has paid out in full and covers the remaining costs up to your umbrella policy’s limit.

What does umbrella insurance cover?

Umbrella insurance is specifically about liability, which is the costs you may owe to someone else for an event where you are held responsible. It doesn’t usually cover damage to your own property or belongings, as your primary policy handles those losses.

How does umbrella insurance work?

Umbrella insurance only pays out after your primary policy has reached its liability limit. For example, if your auto policy covers liability up to $500,000 but an accident results in $600,000 in medical bills for the other driver, your auto policy pays the first $500,000, and your umbrella policy covers the remaining $100,000.

Who is covered under an umbrella insurance policy?

If you have umbrella insurance, it may also cover family members or household members, not just the primary policyholder. Be sure to review your specific policy to understand who is covered for your unique situation.

How much does umbrella insurance cost?

Umbrella insurance is often more affordable than you might think. Because it only pays out after your primary policy is exhausted, the likelihood of a claim is lower, and the premium usually reflects that reduced risk.

High Net Worth Insurance FAQ
What is high net worth insurance?

High net worth insurance isn’t simply ordinary personal insurance with higher limits and higher premiums. It’s about recognizing that people with large assets have unique coverage needs, and bringing multiple areas of coverage together, such as home or homes, vehicles, travel, and even life insurance, into one comprehensive solution designed around your particular risks, assets, and lifestyle.

What is agreed value coverage?

With agreed value coverage, you and the insurance company agree on the payout amount upfront in the event of a total loss claim. Instead of being tied to the depreciated market value of your vehicle, art, or other insured item at the time of a loss, you know exactly what your coverage is worth from the moment the policy is written.

Does high net worth insurance cover my secondary home?

If you own multiple homes, you’ll need policies for each home to fully cover them. Excess liability coverage may also be added for additional liability limits, which can be especially valuable when you have more than one property to protect.

What other unique risks can high net worth insurance cover?

There are plenty of unique risks that come with your lifestyle, and many of them have specialized coverage options. Household help, identity theft, high-value items and collections, and more all have insurance solutions designed to help protect your life.

Business Auto Insurance FAQ
What is the difference between business auto insurance and personal auto insurance?

Business auto insurance covers vehicles owned by businesses or used for work-related purposes. Personal auto insurance is designed for everyday driving and generally excludes accidents that occur while a vehicle is being used for business, so relying on a personal policy while driving for work could leave your business exposed.

Does my business need commercial auto insurance if it only owns one vehicle?

Yes. Whether your business owns one vehicle or an entire fleet, any vehicle used primarily for business purposes generally needs a commercial auto policy. The number of vehicles does not change the type of risk your business faces, and most personal auto policies will not cover accidents that occur during business use. Requirements may vary by state.

What types of vehicles can be covered under a business auto policy?

A business auto policy can typically cover a wide range of vehicles, including cars, vans, pickup trucks, box trucks, and specialty vehicles like service vans or work trucks. Coverage options vary by insurer and vehicle type, so speaking with your agent is the best way to make sure each of your business vehicles has the right protection.

Does business auto insurance cover employees driving their own cars for work?

A standard business auto policy generally does not cover employees driving their own personal vehicles for work-related tasks. To help protect your business in those situations, you may need to add hired and non-owned auto liability coverage, which can help cover claims when an employee is in an accident while using a personal or rented vehicle for business purposes.
