When you’re reviewing home insurance policies, you’ll probably hear lots of vocabulary terms you aren’t familiar with. One of those terms is “the 80\/20 rule.” According to Kiplinger, this “rule” will make a big difference in how much your insurance company will pay you if your home sustains damage. You might assume that a home insurance policy will reimburse you for the total amount of damage, but this rule could mean that your compensation will be less than you expect.<\/p>\n
According to Kiplinger, the 80\/20 rule means that to get complete coverage on a home insurance claim, you must buy a policy worth at least 80% of its replacement cost value. (Replacement cost value is the amount needed for materials and labor to rebuild or repair your home, not its real estate market value.) For example, if your home’s replacement value is $500,000, your home insurance policy must be worth at least $400,000, which is 80% of $500,000. If your home insurance policy is for less than 80% of its replacement cost, the insurance company will pay only a portion of the value of your home’s damage claim.<\/p>\n
