What You Should Know About Montana Home Insurance
What It Is
Montana home insurance is simply disaster protection for your home and your belongings.
Although this involves situations beyond your control, having plenty of Montana homeowner's insurance is within your control—and can mean your financial survival in a time of hardship.
What It Covers
The typical Montana homeowner's insurance policy covers not only your home itself, but also your personal possessions.
In addition, it protects you against any financial responsibility when someone is injured on your property, whether you are home when the incident occurs or not.
To clarify, your Montana home insurance policy covers:
- The structure of your home, as well as any other structures on your property (It does not cover your property.)
- Your belongings, usually valued at half your home's worth
- Liability for others hurt on your property, regardless of cause
Structure
Other structures on your property covered by your Montana homeowner's insurance include items like sheds, a separate garage, a gazebo or pool. Your policy protects these structures from common threats like fire, smoke, lightning, theft and weather extremes—just as it protects your home from these perils.
Possessions
Although most of your personal belongings are covered under your Montana home insurance policy, some of them are not. These items, such as expensive jewelry or art, may require coverage under a separate policy. If you own some of these expensive exclusions, ask your insurer for a policy that covers them.
Liability
Most standard Montana home insurance provides $100,000 in homeowner liability. However, if you have a pool, you should consider extra liability coverage through an "umbrella," or additional policy. Otherwise, you could find yourself legally liable if someone enters your property and is hurt or drowns in your pool.
How You Can Save
Saving money on your insurance is possible IF you use some tried and true strategies. Use the following tips as a money-saving blueprint for your Montana home insurance:
- Comparison shop, getting as many quotes as possible before making your final decision.
- Increase the deductible on your home. The more you pay toward claims, the more you reduce the risk your insurance company incurs—and the less you pay for your policy.
- Buy your home and car insurance from the same Montana home insurance provider. This usually gets you a "multiple policy" discount.
- Take extra reinforcing or protective measures to keep your home from incurring damage in a disaster.
- Ask for discounts. Your insurer may deduct a considerable amount from your premium for home security systems, smoke detectors, or even for remodeling your home. Seniors often qualify for considerable discounts, too.
- Check into group home insurance through an employer, alumni or business group. These plans almost always provide you a better deal than if you purchase your Montana home insurance on your own.
- Stay with the same home insurer as long as possible. This often gets you a discount.
- Review your Montana home insurance policy annually, making adjustments as building costs change in your area. (Lower building costs mean lower REBUILDING costs—which can mean a reduction in home insurance premiums.)
