For the Post Register
Editors note: This is the ffth story
in a series covering the home-buying
process. Each week will cover the
steps you can expect to go through
before moving day.
A home is one of the most ex-
pensive purchases you will make
in a lifetime, so it makes sense that
you would want to protect that
purchase from disaster, thef or ac-
cident.
One of the best ways to protect
your investment is through home-
owners insurance.
Tose new to the homeown-
ers club may have some questions
about homeowners insurance and
the process of obtaining it.
If you have a mortgage they
require it, said Misty Adams of
Sound Insurance. [Lenders] al-
ways require insurance at closing.
Adams has seen frst time home-
owners come through Sound In-
surance for eight years. She has sold
insurance for 22 years.
According to Adams the insur-
ance company will need to know a
few things about the home. What
type of home did you purchase,
what materials were used in con-
struction, what year was it built,
how many square feet, where is the
home located and what is the prop-
erty value? Avoid being caught of
guard by knowing these answers
ahead of time.
Knowing the answers to these
questions can make the process
of obtaining insurance easier. But
knowing the right questions to ask
can make for a better experience.
Te one thing they always do is
use credit as a reference for insur-
ance, Adams said. Each carrier
calculates a letter or number score.
Depending on your score, your in-
surance rates will difer.
One big tip Adams recommends
to those just starting out is to look
for bundling and package deals.
Look for a package, she added.
Your cost could be 10-25 percent
less if you package it together.
Some features of the home can
increase insurance rates; wood
stoves, how far the home is from
the fre department or fre hydrant
and even dogs.
Tats one of the frst questions
we ask, said Adams. Do you have
animals? Aggressive dogs are the
only ones they [deem] unacceptable.
According to Rod Tieken, own-
er of Falls Insurance, liability is the
biggest concern frst time couples
generally have. Liability is the big
one because young couples dont
usually have a large amount of fur-
niture or special fxtures.
Insurance companies generally
break up coverage into four areas;
coverage A which covers the home,
coverage B that covers outbuild-
ings, C which covers the contents
of the home and D coverage that
covers any additional costs.
Te problem that most buyers
are going to have is the cost, Tiek-
en said. Tey bought the house for
$70,000, but they have to have it
covered for $100,000.
Te bank is the one holding the
bag and that frustrates people, he
added. Most of it is a bank issue.
First time buyers ofen take a
loan out to purchase a home so the
insurance is not only in their best
interest but in the banks as well.
Tieken and Adams both claim that
there are limitations on home own-
ers insurance that frst time buyers
are unaware of. How much the insur-
ance covers for thef of collectible, ex-
pensive items and even gifs are items
that buyers ofen miss.
Lets say a young man has a
gun his father bought him, Tieken
said as an example. Te insurance
only covers $1,000 when the gun is
worth $5,000 if that gun is stolen.
If the home burns down the whole
amount is covered.
Because most companies do a
credit check Tieken warns against
the number of credit cards one may
accumulate in their youth.
Limit your number of cards, get
rid of them, and if you want good
premiums pay of your bills. Pay
your bills on time they really look
at that, paying consistently late is a
black mark, he said.
