Is Standard Hawaii Home Insurance Enough For My Needs?

12/22/2011 12:00:00 AM
Have you thought about your Hawaii home insurance recently? Many homeowners have the minimum of home insurance coverage, only enough to satisfy the mortgage lender’s requirements. As time goes on, these homeowners are likely to acquire more possessions and make improvements to their homes. However, unless their home insurance coverage has been adjusted to reflect these changes, they are at risk of being under insured.

Your home is likely to be your most important investment, and home insurance coverage should be reviewed regularly so that your investment is fully protected. Standard home insurance policies typically cover the building itself, your possessions, additional living expenses if your home becomes uninhabitable due to disaster, and some liability protection for the cost of lawsuits.

The protection offered by standard home insurance policies is sufficient for many homeowners, but many people have additional needs and requirements:
• You may have some valuable possessions like jewelry and need to increase personal possessions coverage.
• You may need additional insurance to cover the risk of earthquakes and floods.
• You may be exposed to a risk of high liability claims and need umbrella insurance to increase your liability coverage.
• You may be operating a business from your home and need to ensure you are properly protected for loss of business equipment.
