Homeowners Insurance: how to protect your biggest investment
Homeowners insurance is a bundle of coverages (into a single policy) that can protect homeowners from unforeseen damage or loss from events such as weather, theft or vandalism. It provides relief in the form of cash or replacement of the contents of the home and the structure itself.
