Your Joseph Hoell insurance agent can help you determine the right type and coverage of homeowners insurance for your unique property.

You want your homeowners insurance to essentially:

- Replace your belongings (personal property)
- Cover injuries and damages that occur on your property (liability)
- Reimburse your living expenses if you can’t live in your home (additional living expenses)
Standard policies may not cover wind, floods and other natural disasters. When shopping for home insurance in WI, study your homeowners insurance policy to be sure it covers your home in case of natural disaster. Because a home is often the largest financial investment you’ll make, it’s essential to protect your property in case of any situation. Don’t take the risk of being underinsured during an emergency.
