How much home insurance do I need in Louisville, KY?
Every homeowner’s insurance needs are different. In general, it is recommended that you carry enough home insurance to cover the total replacement cost value of your home.
The total replacement cost value of your home is not its market value. Instead, it is how much it would cost to completely rebuild the home after a disaster, including material and building costs. This amount also ties into home insurance’s 80% rule. When shopping for home insurance, you may have come across the “80% rule” in home insurance. This rule states that you should carry at least 80% of your home’s total replacement cost value in home insurance, otherwise you may have gaps in your coverage when it comes time to file a claim.
