🏠 How Much Homeowners Insurance Do You Need in Houston?
It’s not always as simple as insuring your home for what you paid for it.
Your homeowners coverage should generally be based on what it would cost to rebuild your home today—not the market value of your property.
And there’s more to consider:
🏠 Dwelling coverage – Rebuilding your home
🛋️ Personal property – Furniture, clothing, electronics & more
🏡 Other structures – Fences, detached garages, sheds, etc.
🏨 Additional living expenses – If you have to temporarily live somewhere else after a covered loss
⚖️ Personal liability – Protection if you're legally responsible for injuring someone or damaging someone else's property
🌊 Flood insurance – Standard homeowners insurance generally does not cover flooding
Houston homeowners also need to pay close attention to deductibles and coverage for wind, hail and other storm-related risks. Your exact needs depend on your home, location, construction, belongings and policy.
Not sure if your current coverage is enough?
I can review your policy and help you determine whether your coverage limits make sense for your home.
