Reader’s Question:

I live in Fort Wayne Indiana IN and I would like to know more about additional living expense coverage. Should I include it in my home insurance? What are the benefits of including this in my home insurance?

Alexander,

Fort Wayne, IN

Thank you for asking this question, Alexander, as it gives me a chance to explain a feature that is not often maximized by policy owners. Additional living expense is one of the several features that can be included in a home insurance.

Usually when a claim is being utilized to repair for a damaged home due to fire, hurricane, hail or lightning, it takes some time before the home is restored to normalcy. While this repair is ongoing, there are many more other expense incurred by the homeowner as a direct and indirect result of losing a home. Instead of cooking your meals at home, you will usually resort to eating out, not that I don’t mind having Indiana’s famous buffalo wings! This alone brings in additional living expense for you, Alexander. Oftentimes, you have to relocate which may be farther to your place of employment and this again brings additional expense. Of course, there is also the question of where you will be staying during the times your home in Fort Wayne Indiana IN is being repaired. This in usually the biggest additional expense incurred. These and more are the things covered by additional living expense policy. If you go to your local insurer in Indiana, I am sure that they will be very glad to explain the pros and cons of adding this feature to your home insurance policy.

Additional living expense is usually a fraction of the price coverage for your dwelling in Fort Wayne Indiana IN. Of course, premiums tend to be higher when you include this. But if you ask me, the benefits far outweigh the cost of including it.
