After looking at dozens of houses you found a property you love. You've managed to come up with a down payment, get approved by a lender, and started wrapping your knick knacks in newspaper. Now you need to find a homeowners insurance policy that meets your needs, but how do you know if a policy is the right one for you?
For most people, your home is your biggest financial investment. Having homeowners insurance is an important part of owning a home because it helps protect you from suffering a catastrophic loss. But what exactly is homeowners insurance, and how do you know if you have the right coverage?

What is the best homeowners insurance policy?
Your homeowners insurance coverage should be as unique as you are, otherwise it isn't going to meet your needs. It is important to get multiple quotes from different homeowners insurance companies to make sure you are getting the best rate, but comparing plans based on rate alone is not the most effective way to choose the best homeowners insurance company for you.
There are lots of features included in each insurance plan that could impact whether or not the plan meets your needs, including coverage levels, premium, deductible, and so much more. If you are confused and need some help determining which policy is the best in your situation, you can always reach out to one of our insurance experts here at Goosehead Insurance and they can help you find the perfect plan for you.
How much home insurance do I need?
There are many factors to consider when thinking about how much insurance you need. Do you have a pricey wine collection that needs a separate insurance rider? Does your house come with a pool or hot tub? Will you need coverage that offers a full replacement cost for your belongings or are you satisfied with actual cash value? Do you need additional coverage for things like identity theft or water backup?
Knowing exactly what you need in a policy can help you decide how much coverage is appropriate in your situation. There are multiple homeowners insurance calculators available online to help point you in the right direction, or you can work with an expert to help you figure out exactly how much insurance you need.
How can I lower my home insurance rates?
Just because you need insurance coverage doesn't mean you need to pay a fortune to get it. There are lots of ways you can save money on your insurance, including:
Remember that cheap homeowners insurance isn't always the best homeowners insurance, so choose your policy based on more than which plan has the lowest cost.
