Single-Family Homeowner's Insurance

A homeowner's insurance policy protects much more than your house. It protects your family, and even your financial future. So you want to be sure you have coverage that's right for you.

What's covered?

For most people, a plan known as Homeowners Special Form—or HO-3—is the right choice. In plain English, that's simply a policy that covers damage to your home and personal property. It also includes liability coverage in the event a guest is injured in your home, you injure another person, or you damage someone else's property.

A typical HO-3 policy covers things like:

  • Fire and lightning
  • Windstorm and hail
  • Explosion
  • Riot and civil commotion
  • Damage to your home caused by a vehicle
  • Smoke damage
  • Vandalism and malicious mischief
  • Theft

  • Theft
  • Falling objects
