5%-25% |
The Homeowners Choice policy offers deductibles of 5%-25%. This deductible is separate from the dwelling deductible, which may allow you to receive a personal property claim payment even if you don’t meet the dwelling deductible. And, if the dwelling deductible is met, the personal property deductible is waived.
Homeowners Choice claim-payment example:
- If your dwelling is insured for $150,000 with a 10% deductible ($15,000), and
- You have personal property covered for $75,000 with a 5% deductible ($3,750), and
- An earthquake causes damage to the dwelling that is less than the dwelling deductible, but $50,000 in personal property damage, then
- Although your dwelling deductible is not met, your separate personal property deductible allows you to receive $46,250!
- This payment is the difference between the covered damage to personal property ($50,000), less the deductible ($3,750).
