Homeowners & Renters Insurance Hickory, North Carolina

When you need a home insurance policy, it is important to find one that fits your needs and lifestyle. If something were ever to happen in the event of an unfortunate tragedy or accident - whether on purpose by a disaster like fire damage from stovetop overload; accidentally while doing chores around kitchen range explosion--we’re here for all those moments when life feels unforeseeable! You can rest assured knowing Romeo Heatherly Insurance Services is an independent insurance agency that has policies tailored specifically towards renters as well as homeowners who own property at risk, such as second homes offsite properties where the jewelry may be stored.

Homeowners in North Carolina can purchase an enhanced policy, also known as a HE-7. This provides superior coverage to the standard homeowners’ policies available from other companies because it meets all requirements for this type of document and has increased benefits too!

Here’s why you should consider an enhanced HE-7 homeowner’s policy instead of the basic ones:

Enhanced Homeowner’s Insurance Policy

Much like the standard policy, the North Carolina enhanced homeowners insurance policy provides you with six coverages:

Personal Liability
Loss of Use
Personal Property
Other Structures
Dwelling
Medical Payments for Others

The enhanced policy adds the following additional benefits to the above six coverages:

Personal Injury (Personal Liability) – This will cover you in the event that you’re sued for slander, libel, or defamation.

Mortgage Expense (Loss of Use) – The enhanced policy will pay up to 20% of your dwelling to live somewhere else while your home is being repaired, and it will also make your mortgage payments for up to 12 months.

All Risk Coverage (Personal Property) – This states that unless your policy explicitly excludes coverage, it’s covered. For example, if a meteor falls from the sky and crushes your house, as long as your policy doesn’t exclude it, you’re covered.

20% of the Dwelling (Other Structures) – The “other structures” part of the policy refers to all other buildings on your property that are not attached to your house. For example, your jacuzzi, swimming pool, detached garage, barn, garden shed, as well as fencing are all considered other structures. The standard policy will only provide up to 10% coverage max. The enhanced one provides coverage of up to 20%.

Guaranteed Replacement Cost (Dwelling) – This means that the insurance company will pay whatever it costs to rebuild your home.

(Medical Payments for Others) – The coverage extended by the standard and enhanced policies are the same.

Increase the limit of the liability – This is the cheapest way to get coverage for a specific item. Keep in mind that the amounts are still limited.
Buy a floater – Buying a floater and scheduling your valuables offers the greatest protection. However, it will cost you more money.
