No. You will have to cancel you policy and the new owner will have to apply for a new policy. The homeowner's policy is partly based on the home and partly on the person so the new owner will be underwritten as well as the property.

Does homeowners insurance stay with property or homeowner when he moves?

Homeowners insurance is NOT transferable. It will not follow the Homeowner to a new property nor will it cover the home for the new owner. If the homeowner sells or vacates the home or transfers ownership by other means the policy is null and void at the moment the property changes hands whether or not the Insurance company has been notified. A new owner must qualify for their own insurance policy based on their own merits.


Can you leave life insurance to the insured if so how?

I guess what your question is how to transfer the ownership of insurance policy to the insured if they are different person. The owner of policy can simply sign the form called "policy ownership absolute transfer form" which you can find it through your insurance advisor. If the owner passed away, and you had assigned contingent owner when you applied the insurance, that ownership will be automatically transferred to the contingent owner. Hope it answers your question.

You do not need a health examination to obtain home owner insurance. Your health is not an issue.

What happens when a home owner dies is that someone else inherits the house. The new owner will have the option of continuing the existing home owner insurance policy.
