Reader’s Question:

In the event of a fire or theft, my homeowner’s insurance in Lakewood Colorado CO will replace the stolen or damaged item, inside my home, right? How will they compute the price of the items?

Hi, Victoria! I am always pleased when I hear a lady talking about home insurance and in a more than basic knowledge level at that! I hope there are many other homemakers in Lakewood Colorado CO who are as educated about the topic of home insurance as you are.

What you are referring to is the personal property damage which can be included in your home insurance policy, more specifically, replacement cost coverage. This coverage will “pay” or “reimburse” to you the amount of the property. When you are making your claim for this coverage, your insurer will first valuate your property. There are two usual methods being used by insurers in valuating property. This method will be dictated by the amount you have paid for this inclusion. The first usual method used is the actual cash value. This is the depreciated value of your property at any point in time and may be less or more than the original amount you have paid for your home.

You can get a good idea of how much is the actual cash value by canvassing around Lakewood Colorado CO for properties on sale that somehow resemble the profile of your home. The second is the replacement cost method which simply means that your insurer will pay for the properties’ value today, regardless of when it happens. This second is more costly and you should do your homework by knowing hoe much these coverage costs. There is a space provided on this page which enables you to get free quotes by just applying your zip code.

And…it almost slipped my mind – is your husband’s name David?
