When a house becomes vacant or empty and vacant homeowners insurance is needed, one of the most important things to remember is the home needs to be insured for the true rebuild and reconstruction cost.Often, even after someone understands the need for vacant home insurance, they ask to be insured just for the amount they owe on a loan, or if they are selling, they want to insure for a low value in order to keep their premium payment lower because the cost of vacant home insurance is much more than regular homeowners insurance.This practice is dangerous. First, any reputable insurance company needs to insure a vacant home for the full rebuild cost assuming there is a total loss. Most people don’t realize if this is not done, there can be severe penalties at claim time if an insurance claim is filed on a vacant house.Any company willing to insure you for less than the true rebuild cost using like or the same materials should be avoided.

Vacant Home Insurance Now (.com) a website that is used to put those in need of vacant home insurance together with an agent and insurance company that specializes in providing vacant home insurance, announced today that they will be able to provide a quick quote estimate if visitors to the website will complete the new contact form.The new contact form takes about 3 minutes to fill out, and asks a lot more questions, but if visitors complete the full contact form, they will be able to get a price estimate that should be accurate to within 5% to 10%. To get an exact quote depends on their State, the exact situation, and the results of a 12 to 15 minute phone interview where details on the vacant home are collected (including an assessment of the vacant home value) and put into a computer program.However, getting a quote estimate that will be 90% or greater in accuracy on the vacant home, by just spending 3 minutes inputting information into an online form is probably unmatched in the industry. It will give people an idea of what is covered and how much it will cost because they will need to budget properly. Vacant building insurance is more expensive than regular homeowners insurance, there is just no way around it. People should be prepared to spend 3 times to 5 times as much on vacant home insurance as they did on “regular insurance” when they were living in the house.Even providers in the market that offer very limited policies with limited coverage are still at least 3 times as expensive and the coverage these plans offer is extremely reduced. We suggest spending a bit more to secure full coverage. Anything less is self insuring your vacant home.The estimates do not mean that underwriters will eventually approve and offer coverage. Of course, the home needs to qualify for insurance and that is why this is called an estimate and not a quote.
