Standard Homeowner’s Insurance Policy (HO3)
VYRD’s standard homeowner’s insurance policy (known in the industry as an HO-3 policy) provides coverage for your home and your things, in the event of a covered loss. It also provides personal liability protection which is used when there is damage to someone else’s property as a result of your actions. This includes:
Your Home
(Coverage A) relates to your homes physical structure
Other Structures
(Coverages B) covers things like your detached garage, fence, tool shed, and pool
Personal Belongings
(Coverage C) covers your personal property, laptop, television, sofa, sports equipment, etc.
Temporary Living Expenses
(Coverage D) assists with additional living expenses (like hotel bills) if your home becomes unlivable due to a fire, windstorm or other specific peril
Personal Liability
Protection
(Coverage E) applies to bodily injury or property damage incurred by other people (or their stuff) as a result of your actions. Note that it doesn’t matter if the damage happens at home, or anywhere else.
