Mortgage commitments and closing attorney’s tend to focus on meeting the dwelling limit requirements, having the correct mortgage clause and proof of payment to complete the closing.   OK, so now what?  Your homeowners policy is a package policy covering property and liability for an owner occupied dwelling, condominium or apartment. What about your coverage needs beyond the dwelling or requirements of a mortgage company or landlord?
It is important for you to thoroughly reveiw your coverages to be sure they meet your needs.  Here’s one area that you will want to pay particular attention to: Certain property categories are very limited in coverage on your homeowners policy.
