Homeowners Insurance only covers potential losses to the home as detailed in the Home Insurance Policy. It does not confer inheritance rights or ownership in any way.
Inheritance issues are addressed by other legal instruments such as a "Last Will and Testament" or by your local probate law promulgated by your state.
You may wish to consult with an attorney experienced in probate or inheritance cases for clarification of issues related to inheritance.

If you are a beneficiary on life insurance who lets you know?
Once an insurance company (insurer) receives a valid proof of loss (claim form), the insurer will begin the process of contacting beneficiaries of any life insurance. The insurer will first contact the primary beneficiary. If unable to locate the primary beneficiary, or if the primary beneficiary is dead, the insurer will then move to the contingent beneficiary (second beneficiary). If the insurer has no response to the contingent beneficiary, the insurer then moves to the tertiary beneficiary (third beneficiary). Failure here will force the insurer to pay any life proceeds to the estate of the decedent, which can open the claim to the creditors of the decedent in most states. More than 40% of life insurance policies in America have no named beneficiary! Failure to name the beneficiary can leave your loved ones in a bind. Always name your beneficiaries. List one or more in each category (primary, contingent, tertiary) too. Most people name their spouse first, children as contingent, and parents or siblings as tertiary.
My husband is a rider on my life insurance policy if he dies before me what do I do?
I don't understand what you mean by ''he is a rider'', do you mean he is the named beneficiary? If so and he dies prior to you, you need to name another beneficiary, or perhaps you already have a 'second' or contingent beneficiary, in that case the money would be paid to this contengient if the primary beneficary is deceased.
Who gets the insurance if the beneficiary cannot be found?
Normally, when one buys an insurance policy a primary beneficiary is designated, as is a "contingent" beneficiary. The latter is second in line to get the proceeds if the primary beneficiary predeceases the insured and the insured does not name a new primary beneficiary. Another circumstance for the contingent beneficiary to get the proceeds is when the primary beneficiary cannot be found. The beneficiary designation(s) on the policy may also provide in addition to, or instead of, a contingent beneficiary that the proceeds get paid to the estate of the deceased insured. If that is the case, the proceeds become a part of the cash assets of the estate and are distributed to heirs in accordance with the Will. If there is no Will, the estate is distributed according to the laws of descent and distribution of the state in which the insured died. If none of the foregoing applies, and after having made a diligent search for the beneficiary(ies), the insurer pays the proceeds to the unclaimed property authorities of the state in which the insured last lived. This is a government agency, or bureau within an agency, and is often annexed to a department of insurance or the chief financial officer of the state. There exists a national organization of unclaimed property offices.
If there are two beneficiaries and one dies previous to the insured do proceeds go to the surviving beneficiary or half to the dead beneficiary's heirs?
There is no single answer to your question because the facts may be different in different cases. First, the insured should change the beneficiary designation if a named beneficiary dies before the insured's death. That will avoid problems later.A beneficiary designation may include additional instructions when two or more beneficiaries are named. First, the insured can name "contingent" beneficiaries who will take a deceased beneficiaries share- on any life insurance policy. Second, the beneficiaries may be named as beneficiaries "per stirpes" or as "joint with the right of survivorship" where if one dies their share passes to the survivor.You need to check the designations on the particular insurance policy, the policies of the particular insurance company and the laws in your jurisdiction.
