Home Insurance: Protection Where Your Heart Lives
Request a QuoteYour home is more than a building. It’s where memories are made, where your family feels safe, and where life happens. Whether you’ve just moved in or have lived there for decades, protecting your home is protecting what matters most. That’s why having the right home insurance policy is so important.
At Metro-West Insurance Services, we know the stakes. We help homeowners safeguard their properties, personal belongings, and peace of mind—because home isn’t just a place, it’s a feeling. Let’s break down what home insurance includes, why it matters, and how we can help you feel confident no matter what comes your way.
What Is Home Insurance?
Homeowners insurance is a policy that protects your house and everything in it from unexpected events—like fire, theft, storms, and liability claims. It covers your dwelling, personal property, and more, depending on your policy type and coverage limits.
Why It’s Essential
Life is unpredictable. A kitchen fire, burst pipe, or strong windstorm can happen anytime. Without coverage, you’re on the hook for repairs, replacements, or lawsuits. With it, you’re protected from financial disaster.
Peace of Mind Every Day
When you go to bed at night, you shouldn’t have to worry about “what ifs.” Home insurance gives you confidence that if something goes wrong, Metro-West Insurance Services is here to help make it right.
What Does Home Insurance Typically Cover?
Every policy is unique, but most standard homeowners policies offer protection in these key areas:
| Coverage Area | Description | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Dwelling Coverage | Repairs or rebuilds your home if it’s damaged by covered events | Fire, wind, hail, lightning |
| Personal Property | Protects belongings inside the home | Furniture, electronics, clothing, appliances |
| Liability Protection | Covers legal expenses if someone is injured on your property | Slip-and-fall claims, dog bites, guest accidents |
| Loss of Use | Helps pay living expenses if your home is uninhabitable | Hotel bills, meals, temporary housing |
| Other Structures | Covers detached buildings on your property | Garages, sheds, fences |
Why Personal Property Coverage Matters
Many homeowners underestimate how much stuff they own. If your home burned down tomorrow, could you list every item you’d need to replace? From the couch to the coffee maker, your policy can help cover the cost of rebuilding your life—not just your house.
How Much Does Home Insurance Cost?
Premiums vary depending on where you live, your home’s age and condition, construction materials, coverage limits, and claim history. Here’s a general monthly cost estimate:
| Home Type | Estimated Monthly Premium |
|---|---|
| Small single-family home | $75 – $125 |
| Mid-size home with detached garage | $125 – $200 |
| Larger or high-value home | $200 – $350+ |
| Homes in high-risk areas | $300 and up |
At Metro-West Insurance Services, we help tailor a policy that fits your home, your needs, and your budget—without cutting corners on protection.
Do You Have Enough Coverage?
If your policy hasn’t been reviewed in years, it may not reflect the current value of your home or belongings. Let’s update your coverage before a loss, not after one.
What About Natural Disasters?
Most home insurance doesn’t automatically cover earthquakes or floods. We can help you assess your local risks and add extra protection where needed.
