Homeowners
Offer this packaged solution for a home that needs more than just fire coverage.
The homeowners product provides a package of coverage for a full-time or seasonal home that because of its value, age or claim
history needs an alternative to HO-3 coverage. It includes named peril coverage, with Broad Form peril upgrades, plus a replacement
cost settlement upgrade. Water damage is a new option (up to 100% Coverage A). This replaces the water coverage in the Enhanced
Coverage endorsement.
