Buy Homeowners Insurance that Covers Your Risks

The factors that determine what insurance you need and how much it is likely to cost include:

  • Where you live
  • The type and value of your home
  • The value of individual items in your home (contents)
  • Specific risks like crime rate, flooding, fire, natural disasters (as we noted, IN is in a main tornado corridor)

Generally, cities face higher risks for property crime than suburbs or rural areas. Fort Wayne’s crime rate is only slightly above national average. It is always a good idea to protect yourself from burglars by installing alarm systems, dead-bolt locks, and other common-sense procedures like carrying insurance that will cover any losses you have from crimes you can’t prevent. Talk to your independent agent about how to keep your investments and prized possessions safe.
