How to Compare Home Insurance Quotes

Not all home insurance policies are created equally. Pay attention to the deductibles, policy limits, and any other endorsements that may differ across insurers. That way, you know you're making an accurate comparison when reviewing your home insurance quotes. For example, different coverage limits for building, contents, and additional living expenses can make a considerable impact to the overall policy cost. However, TD Insurance offers a single coverage limit – the Million Dollar Solution ® – for your home, belongings, additional living expenses, and other costs. The Million Dollar Solution® aims to provide increased flexibility should you need to rebuild or repair your home, replace your belongings, and find temporary accommodations after a covered claim.

Let's take a closer look at how the Million Dollar Solution® works. Many insurers will set your Additional Living Expense limit to 20% of the rebuild value of your home. If, for example, the estimated cost to rebuild your home is $500,000, then you'd get $100,000 in Additional Living Expense coverage. However, this one-size-fits-all approach doesn't consider factors like the number of people in your household, or the cost of short-term housing in your area. If you reach your limit for additional living expenses, you may have to make significant lifestyle changes during an already stressful time. Instead, the Million Dollar Solution® offers a single amount of insurance to cover your home, belongings, and additional living expenses. Rather than having individual coverage limits, more of your insurance could be allocated to your additional living expenses if needed, should your home be uninhabitable due to a covered claim.

You know your home best. Considering your home, your belongings, and the area you live in can help you determine the home insurance coverage that's right for you. For instance, it's a good idea to think about what's on and around your property when considering any extra home insurance coverage you may need. If you live in an area that sees a high volume of snowfall each year, you may want to consider adding Above Ground Water Damage coverage to your home insurance policy.* While some types of water damage are covered under your TD Insurance home insurance policy, Above Ground Water Damage includes coverage for damage due to rain, snow, melting snow, or melting ice that enters or seeps through the roof of your home, or above ground walls of the building or openings, such as doors or windows. Moreover, if you have an expensive art or watch collection, adding Personal Valuables Coverage to your policy allows you to increase the amount of insurance for high-valued items that would otherwise exceed the limit provided in your home insurance policy.

A TD Insurance agent can help you boost your coverage with optional add-ons if needed, so you can get the home insurance coverage that's right for you.
