Home Insurance Quotes

For many of us, our home is our most valuable possession. It’s also our biggest investment.

That’s why, when it comes to BC Home Insurance, Vancouver homeowners need home insurance experts who can take the time to make sure the policy holder’s dwelling and possessions are insured adequately against unforeseen damage or loss.

In 2005, many of us watched in dismay as forest fires destroyed 240 homes in Kelowna, British Columbia. Sadly, many of these lost homes were underinsured. Still, many BC homeowners, especially throughout the Lower Mainland, are also underinsured…and most don’t even realize it.

What Would You Do If You Had To Replace Your Home?

The rising cost of home construction means your home might be underinsured for today’s market.  If you don’t insure your home to value you could stand to lose thousands of dollars.

Don’t be tempted by lower home insurance premiums that won’t cover you for the actual cost to rebuild your home in today’s market. 

At Westland we make sure our BC home insurance customers understand the importance of insuring to value. We’ll help you calculate replacement costs accurately to reflect today’s market and suggest the best home insurance coverage possible so you won’t be underinsured.

Going Beyond the Home Insurance Basics

When it comes to home insurance, Vancouver and Lower Mainland homeowners might want to go beyond basic coverage. 

Earthquake Insurance Coverage - For one, basic home and property insurance policies don’t include damage caused by earthquake. If you live in British Columbia, there is a high probability of experiencing an earthquake within the life of your home ownership. Consider adding Earthquake Insurance Coverage to your BC home insurance policy.

Theft Insurance Coverage - On a basic home insurance policy, theft coverage for your valuables might also be limited. For example, if you own valuable heirloom jewellery, insurance companies often limit coverage to about $5,000.

At Westland, our experts will help you assess the value of your home and your possessions so that in the event of loss or damage you won’t be underinsured. As you can see, not every home insurance policy is created equal. Sometimes, going beyond the basics is the answer.
