important investment. Affordable Insurance Solutions

insurance policies that have flexibility to meet your

Insurance for your home is one of the most popular
and important forms of personal insurance and the
typical South Carolina Homeowners Insurance policy
has two main sections:

Section I - insurance coverage for your property

Section II - personal liability coverage (to cover you
in case of lawsuits arising from things that happen
on your property)

Homeowners insurance is often required by lenders to
obtain a mortgage and nearly everyone, whether you
own or lease property, should have the protection of
homeowners insurance.

Replacement Cost or Actual Cash Value Option in a
South Carolina Homeowners Insurance Policy

Covered losses under a South Carolina homeowners insurance policy can be paid on
either a replacement cost basis or on an actual cash value basis. When "actual cash
value" is used, the policy owner is entitled to the depreciated value of the damaged
property. Therefore, the older the item is, the less money you may receive for it. If you
choose the "replacement cost" coverage, the South Carolina homeowners insurance
policy will reinburse the amount it costs to replace the property with something of a
similar type and quality at current prices.

All Risks or Named Perils in South Carolina Homeowners Insurance

An "All Risks" policy provides the broadest South Carolina homeowners insurance
protection because it will cover losses that are due to any peril except those
specifically excluded in the policy. A "Named Perils" policy covers losses that are
due to only those perils listed in the standard South Carolina Homeowners
Insurance policy and typically include fire, hail, windstorm, and other physical
losses.

Coinsurance Penalty in South Carolina Homeowners Insurance

If your policy limit is less than 80% of the replacement cost of your home, you will
face a "coinsurance penalty," which means you'll have out-of-pocket expenses to
cover costs beyond the policy deductible you chose. For example purposes we will
assume your home's estimated replacement value (RCV) is $100,000. The co-
insurance clause requires you carry at least $80,000 (80% of your RCV). If you
chose to purchase only a $40,000 South Carolina Homeowners Insurance policy
you would be underinsured by half. Therefore, in the example the insurance
company would pay one-half of a loss less the policy deductible, so if you suffered
a $10,000 covered loss to your house, condominium or townhouse and had a $500
deductible, your policy would only pay $4,500.

Personal Liability in South Carolina Homeowners Insurance

Personal liability in a South Carolina homeowners insurance policy is also an
important part of having security from accidents that may occur on your property.
We suggest you choose coverage limits that are not less than those on other
liability insurance you own, such as car insurance.
