Home Insurance – Do You Even Need It
Is home insurance required by law? Do you need to get home owner insurance? The answer all depends on your situation.
Car insurance –or some sort of proof of financial responsibility — is pretty much required by state law, no matter where you live. However, home insurance is different in that it is not required by law. Your bank or mortgage lender though, will require that you have home owner insurance coverage or they won’t finance your home. This is so they can protect their interests; if you’re home is damaged or burns down and you default on your loan, they can still recoup their investment.
What’s more, if you live in a flood-prone region your bank or mortgage company will probably require flood insurance which is sold as a separate policy.
