Homeowner’s Insurance
Farm Bureau Insurance® offers several types of homeowner’s insurance policies with various coverage options. Most of our homeowner’s insurance policies contain similar basic coverage options, but the amount of coverage and specifics of the coverage can vary by the type of policy you have. Your local Farm Bureau Insurance® agent will help you find the best coverage for your situation, review your policy with you, and answer any questions you may have.
Homeowner’s Insurance Coverages
Dwelling
Dwelling Protection protects the dwelling (building) on the residence premises used as your private residence.
Protection for Other Structures
You might have other buildings on your property that are separate or detached from your primary residence. This coverage provides protection for other structures on the residence premises set apart from the dwelling by clear space. Your agent can review the specifics of the policy and coverage limits.
Personal Property
Your home is more than just brick and mortar. Your personal property — like furniture, artwork, and other possessions — is also important to you. The items inside your home are covered under your homeowner’s policy under Personal Property Protection. Be sure to discuss your policy limits with your agent to determine if you may need to raise the limits for your personal property.
Personal Liability
If someone is injured or their property is damaged while they are at your house, Personal Liability Coverage helps protect you and your family against a claim or lawsuit.
Medical Payments to Others
Medical Payments to Others coverage pays reasonable and necessary medical expenses to anyone who is injured while at your home and who does not live with you.
Loss of Use
If your home is damaged by a covered loss and deemed unlivable, you’ll need to find another place to live while your home is repaired. Loss of Use covers additional living expenses (up to the limits of your specific policy) if your home becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss.
Optional Additional Coverages
Scheduled Personal Property
Provides increased limits and broader coverage for Jewelry, Guns, Fine Arts, Silverware, Stamps, Coins, Watercraft, Recreational Vehicles, Computer Equipment and Software, and other items.
Personal Injury
Provides coverage for personal offenses such as slander, libel, false arrest, detention, imprisonment, malicious prosecution, or wrongful eviction.
