Choosing the Right Home Insurance Coverage

Whether you are a homeowner, condominium owner, renter, or landlord, you’ll get quality coverage and affordable rates from COUNTRY.

Insurance for homeowners

• If you own a home, our homeowners insurance will help cover what you need to protect. It covers your home and auxiliary private structures (like garages and storage sheds), personal belongings, liability exposures, and more.
  

Insurance for condominium unit owners

• Condominium owners are usually required to have condo insurance. State law and the condo ownership contract or association agreement will often specify what you are responsible for.
  
  This normally includes personal liability, personal property, and any additions, alterations, or improvements that become part of your unit. Our condo insurance provides protection in each of these areas.
  

Insurance for renters

• When you rent, you still need protection for your personal belongings and personal liability.
  
  Our renters insurance provides that for you – and if you only need a basic policy, you can even add rental insurance as an optional coverage to your COUNTRY auto policy (not avail in IA, MO, MN, ND, or WI).
  

Insurance for rental property owners

• If you’re a landlord or own vacation property that you rent out, Home Protector coverage can be added to your COUNTRY home insurance policy.
  
  Coverage is available for one-, two-, and three-unit rental properties and includes protection for your personal liability, dwelling, outbuildings, and lost income. It even provides limited coverage for your personal property items in the rental building. (Three-unit coverage is not available in all states.)
