The six parts of a Rosenberg homeowners policy
Pays to rebuild the house itself. Set it from a replacement-cost estimate, not the sale price or tax value.
Fences and outbuildings. The default limit is often a percentage of Coverage A, which can be too low on larger lots.
Furniture, clothing and electronics. Replacement-cost settlement pays more than actual cash value after a loss.
Loss of use. After a large storm, contractor backlogs can stretch repairs, so this limit matters.
Legal defense and damages if someone is hurt on your property or you damage someone else’s.
No-fault medical payments for visitors, usually a few thousand dollars.
