It depends on your needs. For a home that is occupied by the owner, a homeowners policy does offer more coverage. However, it also includes more requirements and is more restrictive on the policyholder.
Coverage A on any homeowners policy includes the dwelling itself. This is the home without including the contents. The coverages under a homeowners policy are as follows: Coverage A: Dwelling Coverage B: Other Structures Coverage C: Contents Coverage D: Loss of Use Also provided under most homeowners policies are liability coverage and medical payments to others.
No, your homeowners insurance would not provide coverage for your pet.
Yes, Homeowners insurance typically does provide coverage for losses that result from an accidental fire.
Homeowners coverage should satisfy requirements.
First, a homeowners policy is not what you need for rental property. A homeowners policy is only for a house that is owner occupied. For a house that you rent to others you need to purchase a tenant occupied dwelling fire policy. You must have the proper policy for the situation that you have. The coverage under a homeowners policy ceases when the owner has not lived in the home for 90 days. You need a good insurance agent to advise you and help you purchase the proper policy for your needs. To answer the question, you can deduct the premiums paid for a dwelling fire policy that you rent to someone else.

First, if you are renting the home you should not have a homeowners policy on it. In you homeowners policy it states that 90 days after you move out of your home the coverage ceases even if you keep paying the premium there is no coverage. Homeowners policies are only for owner occupied homes. If it is rented you should have a tenant occupied dwelling fire insurance policies. In any case the both policies exclude damage caused by occupants. And damage must be by a covered cause. None of which work. Sorry.
Of course not. You state they have dwelling only coverage, that means they only pay for loss of the dwelling. No life insurance can be attached to a dwelling insurance policy. Sorry.
This depends on what coverage level you have with your fire insurance. Fire insurance policies offer personal property coverage as an optional add-on, and even include the option to cover either the value of the items or to upgrade and cover their replacement cost.
No it does not. Homeowners insurance covers your home, property and liability excluding your auto. Your auto comprehensive coverage will protect you for fire, theft, striking an animal and....vandalism.
A Bank or Mortgage company requires that the borrower maintain "hazard" insurance and list them as an additional insured. The "hazard" insurance is a homeowners or dwelling fire policy. If they do not receive proof of insurance coverage or if they receive a cancellation from the insurance carrier they will secure coverage on your behalf to "protect their interest" . This policy is usually a Fire Policy that Only covers the Bldg for the amount of the loan. It will not provide coverage for personal property or liability. The premium is high and they will simply increase the mtge payment to escrow the payment for this policy.
A homeowners insurance policy includes up to 10% of coverage C (Personal Property) while off premises. A fire that occurred while on vacation would certainly be covered under this type of coverage. Another incident is a resident child while staying in a dorm at college would also have coverage for personal property while the property was stolen or damaged by fire or windstorm or such at the college dorm.
