Cash-Value Homeowners Insurance

What is Cash-value Homeowners Insurance? 

Household contents are automatically covered by all homeowner policies. But the way they are covered can vary greatly depending on the type of policy. Purchasing a cash-value homeowners policy means when you file a claim, your lost, stolen or damaged items will be paid out at a depreciated value.a small house in the background  

A replacement-cost policy would pay for the cost of a new TV similar to the one that was stolen or damaged. You would get the full $1,000 back in the event of a loss, but at a cost of higher monthly premiums. Replacement-cost coverage can be affordable. However, cash-value may be the best option for homeowners on a budget. In fact, experts estimate that opting for replacement-cost coverage over a cash-value policy could cost you up to 15 percent more each month in premiums.    

Evaluate Your Options 

A cash-value homeowners policy is a great option but not for everyone. To discover which homeowners policy you need, review your home and possessions and make a list of your home’s contents. Waiting until after a catastrophic loss is not the time to realize you failed to assess your insurance needs. 

Carefully analyze your insurance needs and decide if cash-value coverage is right for you: 

  • Make an itemized list of everything that could possibly be damaged, lost or stolen in an incident, disaster or accident. Be sure to include household furnishings, equipment and any other personal possessions. 

  • Clearly identify the item by providing a brand name, serial or identification numbers, and a detailed description, including color, size, style, features and unique characteristics. 

  • Include the date the items were purchased or acquired on the list. This will prevent your possessions from being under-valued in the event of a claim. 

  • Note the purchase price of all items on the list—this is especially important if you have a cash-value policy. 


Why You Should Consider Cash-value Coverage 

For many families, cash-value coverage is the most affordable solution. It gives you peace of mind by adequately insuring your home and its contents in case of a loss, and also offers lower monthly premiums.
