HOME INSURANCE

HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE TIPS for First Time Buyers

1

Know the difference between the replacement cost and the market value. Depending on how much was originally paid for the property, the cost of rebuilding can be higher or lower than the market value. Rebuilding a home is usually cheaper than buying an existing structure unless the original property bought was a foreclosure in which case rebuilding might be more expensive. The key is to accurately determine the cost of rebuilding when finalizing the details on a homeowners insurance policy.

2

Take a home inventory and determine the proper amount of personal property protection. Generally, policies cover 50-75 percent of the replacement value of the house. However, this may not be enough to cover certain valuables such as jewelry, fine art, collections, electronics and other expensive items. A separate rider may be needed and this should be discussed with an agent.

3

Have enough liability protection. This protects a homeowner if they are sued for an injury that takes place on their property. Many policies will even cover a policyholder if an incident happened away from the house. Depending on their assets, some may want to consider an additional umbrella policy if they are worried about ever being sued for an amount in excess of what their coverage offers.

A first time homeowner can find buying a new home exciting and overwhelming.

When shopping for quotes, there are five areas that are especially important.

Here are tips to get the best coverage at the most affordable price.

4 5

Know what is not covered. Carefully study the exclusions section of the homeowners insurance policy. This is important to be aware of so additional coverage can be purchased. For instance, if one lives in an area prone to flooding, they may need to buy additional flood protection.

Consider additionally living expenses if ever forced from the dwelling. If a house becomes unlivable due to a flood, earthquake, fire or other disasters, a family will need to pay for living accommodations, may need additional money for food and transportation, and other expenses. This coverage is “additional living expenses” (ALE) and is a benefit that is usually worth about 20 percent of the home’s replacement value. Be aware of the benefits, limitations and exclusion.

Ocala’s Historic District Developed as the most prominent residential area of Ocala from circa 1880-1930, Ocala’s Historic District originated along Fort King Road and later expanding to the adjacent streets east and southeast of the lively Downtown area which hosts many delightful restaurants and boutique shoppes. The iconic southern charm and architectural influences of the district is renowned for its elegant moss-draped Live Oak trees and natural flora that share the land with the gracefully restored buildings which continue to serve as private homes and modern business offices.

Why Use a Real Why Use a Real Estate AgentAgent?

Estate See Fonda’s listings on Page 27

S

elling your home can seem a daunting task. When you close that deal, you want to make sure that your home goes to the best buyer for the best price. It may seem cheaper to sell your home yourself, and many do; however, there are a lot of details to work through.

Here are five reasons why you should use a real estate agent instead of selling your home yourself:

1

REAL ESTATE AGENTS KNOW HOW TO NAVIGATE THE PROCESS – A real estate agent is the manager of your home buying process. You and your real estate agent will begin with extensive discussions to head off any road blocks later on. Your real estate agent is aware of your concerns, needs and priorities. They are there from the beginning to end, navigating each step of the way with you. Selling real estate can be a tricky business, full of regulations and involved steps. Your real estate agent works for you, staying on top of the latest regulations and helping you meet them.

2

REAL ESTATE AGENTS KNOW HOW TO PROFESSIONALLY LIST THE PROPERTY – In the age of web 2.0, it’s not enough to upload your phone photos to a few random sites. Buyers expect professional photos, videos and flawless online presentation. To get the most exposure, you also need to manage your listing across multiple channels. Real estate agents will do all this for you, including coordinating with photographers and videographers to make sure your listing is top-notch. Hitting the right emotional and responsive chords with buyers is the goal.

3

REAL ESTATE AGENTS KNOW HOW TO PREPARE SELLERS – Before you sell, your home must be in the best condition possible. Your real estate agent can advise you on what repairs need to be done, and they frequently know good contractors. You may have to have inspections done before you sell, and will probably have to do repairs. A real estate agent can set up any required inspections and instruct you on how to prepare. Sometimes homeowners will take out a loan against the house to finance costly repairs, but this can’t be done while the house is on the market. A real estate agent may help assess the situation, and then wait to list it until the repairs are completed.

NAME Comp

000-000 email@gm

4

REAL ESTATE AGENTS KNOW HOW TO OBJECTIVELY NEGOTIATE – You may think preparing and showing your home may be stressful, but receiving offers can be difficult. A real estate agent can help you stay reasonable, without letting you take a lowball offer either. They will also be there to navigate a multi-bid and renegotiations.

Closing can be a confusing process, and there is a lot of paperwork to sign.

Your real estate agent has been through this many times and can explain everything you are signing and why. If you have any questions on anything, your real estate agent is right there.
