How We Can Help

Tobin insurance protects you and your assets from the financial risk of something going wrong.

It can’t stop something happening, but if something unexpected does happen that is covered by your

policy it means you won’t have to pay the full cost of a

loss

Homeowners Insurance

The median home price in the United States hovers around $200,000, which means your home is the biggest investment you’ll likely make in your life.

The purpose of homeowner’s insurance is to protect that investment should it be damaged or destroyed. That said, it’s pretty important.

However, protecting such a big investment doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Once you think carefully about
how much homeowner’s insurance you need so that you’re adequately protected, there are plenty of ways to trim costs.

What Home Insurance Does Cover?

To know whether you’re covered, you should ask two questions: what was damaged and what damaged it? Insurance companies call an event that damages your property a peril. Here are some perils most home insurance policies cover:

Freezing

Aircraft And Vehicles

Accidental Discharge Or Overflow Of Water Or Steam

Condominium Coverage

Homeowners insurance protects you, your home and your family. Coverage can help you recover if the things important to you are damaged.

No one can predict when or where disaster will strike, but homeowners insurance can help you be prepared if it does. Homeowners insurance typically covers damage from events like fire, wind and hail, but there are notable exclusions, like flood.

General insurance protects you and your assets from the financial risk of something going wrong.

Landlord Coverage

Landlord insurance is a policy for someone who rents out a home they own.

This type of insurance typically includes two different types of coverage: property and liability protection.

Both coverages are intended to help protect you, the landlord, from financial losses.

Landlord Property Protection

The property protection in a landlord insurance policy typically helps cover physical property related to the home you’re renting out. This may include the dwelling itself and equipment you keep on site to help maintain it.

Coverage generally includes:

Dwelling

This coverage helps pay to repair your rented home, condo or apartment if it's damaged by fire, lightning, wind, hail or other covered losses.

Other Structures

This part of your policy helps pay to repair detached structures on your rental property, such as detached garage or fence, if they're damaged by a covered loss.

Personal Property Used To Service The Rental

If you leave a lawnmower or snow blower onsite to maintain your rental property, landlord insurance may help cover this equipment if it's damaged.

However, if you leave your personal bike or DVD player at the home you rent out, it likely won't be covered under your landlord policy.

Renters Coverage

In short, renters insurance covers what you own. Most landlords’ insurance covers only the building and damages due to negligence.

Coverage for some of the most common causes of property damage and loss, such as theft, vandalism and fire, is entirely up to you.

Without renters insurance, you may have to bear the financial burden of a loss on your own.

What Does Renters Insurance Cover?

First things first: you’ll want to know why you’re shelling out the $$ to begin with. So, know this: renters insurance policies have way more benefits than you probably thought.

A typical renters insurance policy will cover three main areas:

Personal Property

Temporary Living Expenses

Personal Liability & Medical Bills

When these systems inevitably break down, a home warranty plan covers repair or replacement of the covered items.

Umbrella

Umbrella liability insurance is an extension of homeowner, renter, and auto insurance liability coverage that protects your assets from major claims and lawsuits.

Once limits have been reached on your underlying liability coverage, an umbrella policy provides additional protection to safeguard your assets.

Important to remember: Without an umbrella policy, the costs incurred after your homeowner, renter, or auto policies are depleted must be paid out of your pocket.

What Does Umbrella Insurance Cover That My Other Policies Do Not?

Much like the homeowner who was sued for the head injury that occurred in her backyard, you could also find yourself involved in a lawsuit one day. If you are involved in an accident, or if one happens on your property, the liability coverage from either your homeowners, auto or other insurance policy (depending on the type of accident) may kick in first, according to umbrella insurance carrier RLI.

If the damages exceed what your base policy covers, your umbrella coverage can help you pay the rest of what you owe. Umbrella insurance can also provide your family with:

Personal Injury Coverage

Defamation of character, invasion of privacy, libel, slander.

Defense Coverage

For attorney fees and other legal costs.

Identity Recovery

Identity theft can happen to anyone – and it happens often. Security researchers say that roughly half of U.S. adults had their personal information hacked in a single year.

Once an identity theft occurs, victims are left on their own to figure out how to fix the damage and reclaim their identities.

It can be costly, time-consuming and frustrating.

Identity Recovery Covered Expenses

Identity Recovery also provides expense reimbursement coverage for costs incurred in resolving identity theft.

These expenses include:

Lost Wages

Child And Elder Care Costs

Lost Wages

Child And Elder Care Costs

Credit Bureau Reports

Fees When Reapplying For Loans Initially Declined Due To Falsified Credit Information

Postage, Phone And Shipping Fees

Pet Health Insurance

Cats and dogs are an important part of our families. Today, pets are part of 68 percent of U.S. households – that’s nearly 85 million homes.

Pet health insurance is an important tool to make sure that we can properly care for our four-legged family members.

“One in every three pets requires unexpected veterinary care each year, but the good news is we can do more for our pets now than ever thanks to medical advancements,” said Dr. Linda Lord, DVM, MS, PhD.

“As a veterinarian and pet owner, I recommend that everyone seriously consider insurance, because there are plans available that may fit your personal needs and budget.”
