California Insurance Coverages You May Not Know About

While homeowners insurance will absolutely protect your home’s structure and your personal possessions, it also includes some coverages you may not be familiar with, here is a quick overview of other structures coverage as well as loss of use:

Other Structures: This coverage will protect all other structures on your property. If you have a shed, barn, other outbuildings, fencing or other structures on your property that are detached from your home, this coverage will protect them. Other structures coverage is often capped at 10 percent of your dwelling coverage so if you are carrying $300,000 in dwelling coverage your other structures coverage is $30,000.

Loss of Use: This coverage will help pay your living costs if you are forced out of your home due to a covered peril. A covered peril might include fire, theft or water damage. Loss of use coverage will pay for expenses such as hotels, restaurants and even dry cleaning if you are not able to live in your home while it is being repaired or rebuilt after a claim.

Alta, CA Dwelling Coverage Estimate

It is important to calculate your dwelling coverage for your home in Alta so you know what type of homeowners insurance coverage you need to cover your replacement cost. It is recommended to have enough dwelling coverage to rebuild your home if it was destroyed by a covered peril.

Please remember that replacement cost coverage does not include the cost of the land, only the price to rebuild your home, which is why we like to help customers by answering a few questions that you may have.

What is the average replacement cost coverage in Alta, CA?

Minimum Replacement Cost Total: $422,200

Location: Alta, California (Placer County)

Average Building Cost Per Square Foot in Alta: $324 (low end)

Average Square Footage in Alta: 1,303 Sq. Ft.

The dwelling coverage is calculated by the average cost per square foot ($324) in Alta, California times your heated square footage. Which would equal the cost to rebuild your home minus the cost of the property or land. Some homes will have a higher replacement cost due to home improvements like updated kitchens and bathrooms. Other upgrades may include: granite countertops, hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances. The national square foot average to build a brand new home is around 2500 square feet. So if you are looking to build, and your square footage of your new home is 2500, you are looking at a dwelling coverage premium of around $1,012,500 (Media price to build of $405 x 2500 sq. ft.) to cover the cost to rebuild your new home.

What is the difference between actual cash value and replacement cost value?

Homeowners insurance is available in both actual cash value (ACV) and replacement cost value (RCV). Knowing the difference is important:

Actual cash value: When valuing your personal possessions, an actual cash value policy will take depreciation into account. This means that your 10-year-old TV will be basically worthless according to your insurance company. While an ACV policy tends to be cheaper, if you have to make a claim you may be disappointed in your claim payout.

Replacement cost value: A RCV policy will replace your possessions with brand new items of similar quality regardless of how old they were at the time they were destroyed. While RCV policies are slightly more expensive, they are well worth the cost if you have to make a claim.
