Safeguard Your Assets With Confidence
Property insurance safeguards your home and personal belongings against financial losses from unexpected events. At Astro Insurance, we prioritize protecting your assets with comprehensive options, including personal liability coverage.
Coverage Options
- Dwelling Coverage: Protects the structure of your home, including walls, roof, floors, and attached structures like garages. Offers financial security against damage from fires, storms, vandalism, and theft.
- Personal Property Coverage: Covers personal belongings, including furniture, appliances, electronics, and clothing, both inside and outside your home. Helps replace or repair items damaged or stolen due to covered events.
- Liability Coverage: Essential protection if you are found legally responsible for injuries to others or damage to their property on your premises. Includes coverage for legal defense costs.
- Additional Living Expenses (ALE) Coverage: Provides financial assistance for temporary living expenses, such as hotel stays or rental accommodations, if your home is uninhabitable due to a covered event like a fire.
- Coverage for Other Structures: Extends protection to other structures on your property, such as detached garages, sheds, or fences.
- Endorsements and Optional Coverages: Customize your policy by adding endorsements or optional coverages for specific needs, including flood insurance, earthquake insurance, or coverage for valuable items like jewelry or art.
- Policy Limits: Specifies the maximum amount the insurance company will pay for different types of losses. Review and adjust these limits to ensure adequate coverage.
- Deductibles: The amount you pay out of pocket before your insurance coverage activates. Higher deductibles typically lead to lower premiums.
