The six parts of a Guy homeowners policy

A: Dwelling

Covers the house. Lenders require it, and it is the base that percentage deductibles are calculated from.

B: Other structures

Anything not attached to the house, such as fences, carports and barns.

C: Personal property

Contents coverage, with special lower limits for jewelry, firearms and collectibles unless scheduled.

D: Loss of use

Loss of use. After a large storm, contractor backlogs can stretch repairs, so this limit matters.

E: Personal liability

Covers your legal liability for injuries or damage to others; an umbrella policy can extend it.

F: Medical payments to others

Small medical bills for guests injured at your home, regardless of fault.
