Home Insurance

You receive the news that your bond has been approved, securing your dream home so let the packing and moving begin. However keep in mind that moving homes is one of the most stressful things you can do. Adding to this is the fact that we are living in a country with an extremely high crime rate, making household insurance imperative.

Insurance today is very comprehensive, covering most eventualities. We are constantly being reminded about the importance of insurance. It is very important to investigate all the fact/options when looking for insurance.

Household insurance protects the contents of your home against loss which may occur as described in your policy. You need to know what is covered and what is excluded.

Homeowners make the mistake of under-insuring their household contents in order to lower their premiums. This may work in the short term but what if you are ever in the position that you need to make a claim. That short term saving may actually end up costing you a lot more in the long run

There are so many companies offering insurance with so many promises that it is ever so more important that you know what you are getting and are well covered.

Keep in mind that due to the appreciation of homes especially in the last few years it is vital that you reassess your homes value to make sure you are not underinsured.
