Although it may seem a remote possibility, spring thaws, ice dammed rivers and excessive rain can cause unforeseen flooding for Michigan Homeowners. Most Michigan homeowner insurance policies do not cover flood damage. This can only be purchased through the federal government and would be a supplement to your existing Michigan homeowners insurance policy. You can find information on flood insurance guidelines and whether you are at risk, at www.fema.gov/index.shtm.  Clauses that refer to an exclusion of coverage due to an "Act of God" could be interpreted as a way to avoid paying you for damages by the Michigan homeowners insurance company. You should also check your Michigan House Insurance policy to make sure it covers damage due to excessive snow or ice dams that occur around the eaves of your home.

What You Should Know About Purchasing Michigan Homeowners Insurance

Michigan Renters need insurance to protect their furniture and other personal property.  Everyone, homeowners and renters, needs protection against liability for accidents that cause harm to other people while on their property and/or for damages to their property.

2.   Decide How Much Coverage You Need with your Michigan Homeowners Insurance.
The better your Michigan homeowners  insurance coverage, the less you will have to pay out of your own pocket if disaster strikes.

The deductible is the amount you have to pay out of pocket on each claim and applies only to coverage on your house and personal property. Make sure when choosing an Michigan homeowners insurance policy that you are comfortable paying the deductible if you make a claim. A policy with a $100 deductible will cost more than one with a $250 deductible.

4.   Replacement Cost or Actual Cash Value?
You may have the option to choose a Michigan homeowners insurance policy that either  has replacement cost or actual cash value. Replacement cost is the amount it would take to replace or rebuild your home or repair damages with materials of similar kind and quality, without deducting for depreciation. It is important to have an Michigan House Insurance policy that covers at least 80 percent of your house replacement value. Actual cash value is the amount it would take to repair or replace damage to your home after depreciation.

5.   Shop Around Before You Buy an Michigan Homeowners Insurance policy.

In some states, homeowners insurers offer lower prices for such things as insuring your home and car with the same company, installing deadbolt locks or alarm systems or replacing the roof.

7.   Basic Coverage's Available for Michigan Homeowners Insurance
Whether you own or rent, there are different packages of Michigan home insurance offered to protect your home and belongings. Each package protects against a specified number of events that cause damage to property. Three examples are fire, windstorm and theft. In addition, each package policy usually contains four additional types of coverage: property damage, additional living expenses, personal liability and medical payments. Michigan homeowners policies do not normally protect against flood damage. This can be purchased through the Federal government as a supplement to your Michigan Homeowners insurance.

8.   Read Your Michigan Homeowners Policy Carefully
