β FAQ: 'What is a deductible, and how does it affect my homeowner's insurance?' Your deductible is the amount YOU pay out of pocket before your insurance kicks in for a claim. For example, if you have a $1,000 deductible and file a $10,000 claim β you pay $1,000, OCMIC covers the rest. π‘ Higher deductibles = lower premiums. Lower deductibles = more coverage up front.
