Frequently Asked Questions

What does homeowners insurance cover?

Homeowners insurance typically covers damage to your home from fire, storms, theft, and vandalism, as well as personal liability if someone is injured on your property.

How much homeowners insurance do I need?

You should insure your home for its replacement cost—not the market value. We help calculate the proper coverage based on your home’s size, materials, and local construction costs.

Is homeowners insurance required in Ohio?

It’s not required by law, but mortgage lenders will typically require coverage before issuing a home loan.

Can I get a quote without a credit check?

We use a soft credit inquiry, which doesn’t affect your score. Your credit helps determine risk, and in many cases, better scores mean lower rates.

How can I lower my homeowners insurance premium?

Bundle with auto, install safety devices (like security systems), raise your deductible, or maintain a claims-free history to save more.

What happens after I request a quote?

One of our licensed agents will reach out to verify details and help you compare coverage options from top-rated insurance carriers in Ohio.

Will you sell or share my personal information?

Never. We respect your privacy and only use your information to provide your quote. View our Privacy Policy for details.

What’s the difference between replacement cost and actual cash value?

Replacement cost covers what it would take to rebuild your home today, while actual cash value subtracts depreciation. We recommend replacement cost for full protection.

Can I cancel or switch my homeowners insurance policy anytime?

Yes. You can switch providers at any time—even mid-policy. We’ll help you transition smoothly and ensure there are no coverage gaps.

How quickly can I get coverage?

In many cases, coverage can be issued same-day after your quote is finalized and accepted.
