Premium

« Back to Glossary Index

A premium is the specific amount of money a homeowner pays, usually annually or monthly, to keep their insurance policy active. This cost is determined by your personal risk profile, the value of your home, and current market conditions. Premiums have seen volatility due to rising reinsurance costs and inflation. Paying your premium on time is the legal requirement to ensure the carrier remains obligated to cover your losses should a covered event occur.
