The purpose of purchasing any insurance is to ensure that an individual's financial situation is intact in the event of a loss. The insured agrees to pay certain fees to the insurance company on the same day to obtain the insurance company’s guarantee that it will get it and bear the burden of any major losses that are unlikely to occur in the future. It is on this basis that insurance companies have introduced property insurance. The insurance policy protects the insured from damage to his property (assets such as cars and houses).

Research on homeowners shows that many homeowners do not fully understand what is covered by property insurance policies. This article aims to solve this problem by enlightening owners to understand what insurance covers.

Please note that the policy is designed to cover sudden and unexpected events, not damage that may last a long time.

Property insurance provides insurance policies in the following areas:

1. Fire coverage

Fire is the most common cause of failure to repair a house. For this reason, every insurance policy protects the homeowner’s property and belongings from fire.

In some cases, houses were completely destroyed by fire. In this case, most fire insurance also covers additional living expenses, including but not limited to rent, hotel accommodation, food and restaurant bills.

2. Natural disaster protection

Many natural disasters are usually covered by property (homeowners) insurance policies, although not all. The tragedies included in the guide include thunderstorms, hail, hurricanes and lightning. The policy may also cover damage caused by dropped objects, strong winds, smoke, etc.

3. Personal injury insurance

Most property insurance includes insurance policies that cover injury to property, which may include things like a fall due to partial damage to the property.

This coverage is limited to a specific amount. It’s important to understand the scope it offers and what inclusiveness or exclusivity is.

4. Vandalism report

Generally, vandalism is protected by an all-risk or all-risk policy, unless excluded under certain circumstances. Insurance against vandalism applies to vacant houses, not vacant houses. The former refers to a house that still contains the owner’s personal property.

5. Personal car insurance

Most property insurance offers a personal effects policy and separates the structure of your property. Individual auto insurance policies are a bit vague. They need to be extra careful to obtain all policy details from the insurance company to distinguish between what is considered to be insured and what is not covered by the policy.


The policy document may not always look attractive, but it is best to spend enough time to understand what the policy covers. Instances happen from time to time. Many people think that they will only be surprised when an accident occurs after they are insured, and realize that their insurance policy does not cover specific events. Therefore, thorough homework should be done to accurately understand all the details of the policy.
