Why Is It So Difficult to Insure a Vacant Home?

Why Is It So Difficult to Insure a Vacant Home?

Vacant homes can be attractive to burglars and vagrants, who can access empty property more easily than occupied homes and cause damage.

And if you're not living in the property full-time, it's probably not getting the same proper care or attention as an owner-occupied property. The vacant property could sustain lots of damage if, for example, a pipe bursts or a branch falls on the roof. It's the responsibility of the homeowner to address problems right away and prevent further damage.

Insurance is about leverage. You pay a small consideration (the premium) for a large sum of money in return (the benefit). Check with me on how vacant properties are treated to make sure you're covered for both physical damage and liability. There is a big difference and experience really counts in this category.
