"Insurance is often one of those bills people think about only when premiums rise or a loss makes it necessary to review. Not updating a policy can cost you vastly more money than just paying a slightly higher premium, be that car insurance, home insurance or life insurance, to name a few. Rather than waiting to find out what coverage you have, brokers and other insurance experts offered some moves you should make as soon as possible."
"While everyone wants to find the most affordable insurance possibly, thus skipping add-ons, this can backfire when you really need specific coverage. Zdrilich pointed out that "some of the add-ons just are always worth paying for." Some of these, according to Scheuer, include: Replacement cost coverage for personal property (instead of actual cash value) Extended or guaranteed replacement cost on homeowners' policies"
Insurance is often considered only when premiums rise or after a loss, leaving policies outdated. Failing to update coverage after life changes or asset-value changes can create inadequate dwelling limits, outdated personal property values, and insufficient liability protection. Policyholders should revisit coverage limits proactively and add endorsements that provide real protection. Valuable endorsements include replacement-cost coverage for personal property, extended or guaranteed replacement cost on homeowners policies, water backup/sump pump coverage, scheduled personal property for high-value items, umbrella liability for households with assets or teen drivers, and rental car coverage. Timely reviews reduce the risk of large uncovered losses.
