ADVICE
Request Replacement Cost Value (RCV) instead of Actual Cash Value (ACV).
RCV monthly payments are about 10% more than ACV, but it's worth it. RCV pays out the amount needed to replace an item in today's market, while ACV pays out an amount calculated with a deduction for depreciation.
Include a floater for a high value item.
Create an itemized list of your belongings using the Home Inventory Checklist in the Tools section above.
Document your personal property with photographs. Email them to yourself, and store them in a file electronically online. Pictures stored in the home are useless if the home is consumed by fire.
Take pictures of damage and report losses as soon as they occur.
Read the section on water damage carefully. Some types of water / plumbing damage are covered, others are not.

* Floater - (a.k.a. rider or endorsement) is an escalated coverage for a high value item that is written into the policy for an increased premium. Basically, your monthly payment goes up and your valuable item is covered at full value. Consider high value items you might want covered before buying the policy.
