The Homeowners Choice policy offers deductibles of 5%-25%. Homes with a Coverage A limit over $1 million can only select deductibles of 15%, 20%, or 25%.

- If your dwelling is insured for $150,000 with a 10% deductible ($15,000), and
- You have personal property covered for $25,000 with a 5% deductible ($1,250), and
- An earthquake causes damage to the dwelling that is less than the dwelling deductible, but $20,000 in personal property damage, then
- Although your dwelling deductible is not met, your separate personal property deductible allows you to receive $18,750!
