Looking for homeowners insurance for your new house, or re-evaluating your existing policy? Talk to an agent about the following components in the policy:

• Dwelling: Consider the cost to rebuild the entire home, including materials and construction of a new home, and demolition and debris removal for the old home.
• Contents: Consider a policy that pays the replacement cost for items rather than the actual cash value.
• Deductible: Is there a minimum? Do you want a flat rate or a rate based on a percentage of the home's insured value?
• Flood Insurance: All homeowners should consider it, even if they don't live in a mapped high-risk flood area.
• Earthquake or Hurricane Coverage: Find out if this makes sense in your area.
• Other Riders: Consider riders that cover water/sewer backup, personal injury, loss assessment, ID fraud, equipment breakdown, pet liability, and valuable possessions such as jewelry and antiques.
