Types of Colorado Homeowners Insurance
Unlike
seguro para automóviles, homeowners insurance isn’t required by law in Colorado. However, mortgage lenders will likely require home insurance coverage before you can get a loan.
At The Hartford, we offer a wide range of home insurance coverage options in Colorado so you can find the homeowners policy that works for you and your home. Home insurance coverages available through the AARP Homeowners Insurance Program from The Hartford include:
Dwelling Coverage helps protect your home inside and out. This includes your house and structures that are directly attached to it, such as:
- Roofs
- Garages
- Staircases
- Walls
- Flooring
Cobertura para otras estructuras helps cover additional detached structures located on your property. So, if your shed collapses from heavy snow, or a tree falls on your detached garage, this coverage can help cover the costs.
Cobertura de propiedad personal helps protect your personal belongings from a covered loss. Typically, covered belongings include:
- Electrodomésticos
- Muebles
- Ropa
- Electrónica
You can get additional coverage for valuable items, like collectibles and jewelry. Custom coverages are available in larger amounts to ensure you get the limit you’re comfortable with for your belongings.
Cobertura por responsabilidad civil helps provide for your legal defense against a liability claim. For example, if someone falls down your stairs and gets hurt, this coverage can help cover the costs associated with their medical bills.
More Colorado Homeowners Insurance Coverages:
