Homeowners insurance
Homeowners insurance covers your house, your belongings and your liability — so a storm, a break-in or an accident doesn't turn into a financial disaster. Compare quotes from top-rated insurers in minutes.
What's covered
A standard homeowners policy protects far more than the building itself. Here's what a typical policy includes.
Rebuilds or repairs the walls, roof and built-ins after a covered event like fire, wind or a burst pipe.
Covers furniture, electronics and clothing if they're stolen or damaged — at home and often while you travel.
Pays legal and medical costs if someone is injured on your property or you accidentally damage someone else's.
Extends to detached structures on your lot, like a garage, fence or shed, that aren't attached to the house.
Covers hotel bills and extra living costs if a covered loss makes your home temporarily uninhabitable.
Pays minor medical bills for guests injured at your home, regardless of who was at fault.

Questions
A standard policy covers your home's structure, your belongings, liability for injuries or damage you're responsible for, and extra living costs if your home becomes uninhabitable after a covered loss.
Usually not. Standard homeowners policies exclude flood and earthquake damage; those need a separate policy or endorsement, which you can also compare through us.
Enough to fully rebuild your home and replace your belongings, plus liability protection. Base your dwelling coverage on rebuild cost rather than market value.
Often, yes. Bundling home and auto with one insurer is among the largest discounts available and frequently lowers the cost of both policies.
In most states insurers use a credit-based insurance score as one pricing factor, so a stronger score can mean a lower premium. A few states restrict or prohibit this.
Once you choose a policy you can often be covered the same day, with your documents delivered electronically.
