What is Loss of Use?

Following a catastrophic event, you may find yourself unable to reside in your home. Your home may have been destroyed by a fire or flooded by rising river waters. If the event is covered by your homeowner’s insurance policy, loss of use of your home will kick in. Loss of use helps you to cover the costs associated with living out of your home, such as a hotel room and eating at restaurants until your home is habitable again. 

What Should Your Homeowner’s Insurance Policy Say About Loss of Use?

Most homeowner’s policies have limits related to loss of use. Typically, there is a deductible and a policy limit related to how much money the policy will pay for the loss of use. Always carefully read through the policy to see what the deductible is and what the policy limits are.
