Biggest home insurance mistakes to avoid

Buying a home is likely the largest investment you'll make in your lifetime, and it's essential to have the right coverage. But unless you're an insurance expert, it's easy to make mistakes when selecting your coverage and fine-tuning your policy.

What missteps should you watch for?

Underinsuring your home
The amount of insurance you need to protect your home or condo isn't the same as your home's market value (or what a buyer would pay for your home today). Rather, your dwelling coverage should match your home's rebuilding cost.

If the unthinkable happens, you'll want enough coverage to reconstruct your home — keeping in mind that the cost of rebuilding can exceed your home's market value.

Saying "no" to additional coverage
Homeowners and condo insurance protect a lot, but they don't cover everything. If you've made alterations to your condo or have special collections and valuables in your home, look into additional coverage.

Most policies offer lots of extras to help you get well-rounded protection.

Assuming you have flood coverage
In general, home and condo policies don't cover flood damage. If you live in an area prone to this risk, consider adding flood insurance.
