Unoccupied House Insurance
If you plan on leaving your home vacant for more than thirty days, you may want to talk to your insurance agent about purchasing unoccupied house insurance, also known as vacancy insurance. There are differences between homeowners insurance and vacancy insurance that you need to understand so you know about the coverages.
As previously stated, if you are going to out of your house for more than 30 days, you will need unoccupied house insurance. This is true for people who spend their winters in different places, or if you are away caring for a sick relative, or even if you have just decided to take an extended vacation. This insurance is also advisable for investment properties that you are either fixing up or that won’t be tenant occupied for a stretch of time.
