No, most likely the claim will not be denied. If the owner of the home is not listed on the policy as an insured then the owner is uninsured and the company must by law deny payment of the claim.

Every Homeowners Insurance contract requires disclosure of the legal owner at he time of application. If the property changes ownership during the policy term the Insurance Policy is automatically null and void at the moment ownership changes. The new owner has to make application and qualify for their own Insurance Policy.

It is against the law to insure a home or property in which you have no insurable interest.

Does an insurance agent have to disclose the name of the company that insures his client if there is a claim against his client?

To make this clearer I called this agent stating I wanted to make a claim against his client. He is an independent agent, and sells insurance from many companies. He is giving me the run around. Is required to tell me the name of the company that insures his client?


Can you get homeowners insurance on someone elses property?

You must have an insurable interest to effect valid coverage. Property must be insured in the name of the owner. So if you want to buy someone else a policy for their property you can certainly pay the bill for some else's property insurance but you can not insure it in your own name. If you insured someone else's home in any name other than the legal property owner and it burned down or suffered some other loss, the Insurance company can not legally pay your claim simply because the property does not belong to you. They would also not have to pay the owner because he or she was not an insured on the policy. The proper way to insure it would be under the name of the legal owner, If you also have an insurable interest in the property, then your name can be added as a co-insured. Should a claim arise, the claim check would be issued under both names.

When you file a Homeowners insurance claim does insurance company cut check to you or your mortgage company?

It depends on the language of the policy. Some cut a check directly to you if the claim is under a certain monetary amount. But usually according to you escrow documents, the contract says the bank will need to be put on the check. If they cut a check to you mortgage company you name will also be included on the check and they will mail the check to you. The insurance does this for many reasons, but one is, let's say you foreclose on the home and keep the insurance money; the bank will make a claim to the insurance because the bank owns the home too and they are listed as a payee as well as you. The insurance will have to pay the claim twice due to their error.
