    Home insurance Ontario provides essential protection for homeowners, covering unexpected losses or damages to property and personal belongings. While not legally required, home insurance is typically mandatory for mortgage approval.

    A standard home insurance Ontario policy includes:

    1. Dwelling Coverage: Protects the physical structure of your home.
    2. Contents Coverage: Covers personal belongings, including furniture, electronics, and clothing.
    3. Liability Coverage: Protects against legal claims if someone is injured on your property.
    4. Additional Living Expenses: Covers costs if your home becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss.

    Optional coverages, such as sewer backup, overland water, and earthquake insurance, can be added based on location-specific risks.

    Premiums depend on factors like your home’s value, age, construction type, and location. Discounts may be available for bundling policies, installing security systems, or maintaining a claims-free history. Regularly reviewing your home insurance policy ensures adequate protection and competitive rates.
