A six-step plan for insuring a Boerne home
- Start with the appraisal record. Your property record, including square footage and year built, is on the Kendall appraisal district site at www.kendallad.org (phone 830-249-8012). Its office is at 118 Market Ave. Boerne, TX 78006-3004.
- Set the dwelling limit from rebuild cost. Owners in Boerne put the median value of their homes at $457,900. That is close to the Kendall County median of $512,700. Your dwelling limit should be built from square footage, materials and local labor costs rather than what the house would sell for.
- Choose a wind and hail deductible. Kendall County had 45 hail reports in NOAA’s storm records for 2016 through 2025. Quarter-size or larger stones, an inch and up, appear in 40 of them. The top report was 2.75-inch hail on May 3, 2021. Ask each carrier for quotes at two deductible levels so the trade-off is visible.
- Check the wind arrangement. Kendall County is outside TWIA’s designated catastrophe area, so wind and hail are normally covered by the homeowners policy itself, often with a separate percentage deductible.
- Decide on flood coverage. FEMA lists Boerne as a participating NFIP community. Its flood map now in force took effect in May 2020. It also holds Community Rating System Class 6, which trims NFIP premiums for high-risk-zone policies by 20%. NFIP data counts 379 residential flood policies in Kendall County, about 1 for every 38 homes. Since 2016, 54 NFIP flood claims have come from Kendall County. Flood needs its own policy, and buying one right before a storm will not help because of the usual 30-day wait. Your flood zone is a quick search away on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.
- Compare apples to apples. Ask every carrier to quote the same dwelling limit, deductibles and endorsements, then compare price and claim terms. An independent agency can run several Boerne quotes at once; start a quote here.

FAQ: shopping in Boerne
How often should I shop coverage in Boerne?
Yearly is a good habit, plus whenever your premium jumps, you finish a remodel or you replace the roof.
How do wind and hail deductibles work in Boerne?
A percentage deductible is calculated on your dwelling limit; for example, 2% of a $300,000 dwelling limit is $6,000 out of pocket per wind or hail claim. A flat-dollar deductible usually costs more in premium but is easier to budget. Kendall County logged 40 reports of hail an inch or larger from 2016 through 2025, so run the numbers both ways.
Does homeowners insurance cover tornado damage in Boerne?
Yes, tornado damage is covered as windstorm, subject to your wind and hail deductible. NOAA records show 1 tornado in Kendall County from 2016 through 2025, so confirm your dwelling and loss-of-use limits would cover a full rebuild.
How much could I save by shopping my Boerne policy?
The estimate cards above model about 38.5% below the local market figure for Boerne. Treat it as illustrative; your quote depends on the home, roof, claims history and deductible.
