Additional Valuable Coverages
Comprehensive Protection for Unique Needs
High-value homes normally require additional layers of protection to address the unique and varied risks they face.
At High Value Home Insurance Group, we offer a range of additional valuable coverages to ensure that every aspect of your luxury lifestyle is protected.
Flooding is one of the most common and costly natural disasters, and even high-value homes in low-risk areas can be vulnerable to flood damage.
Flood insurance provides coverage for losses caused by flooding, including damage to your home’s structure, personal belongings, and mechanical systems.
It’s important to note that standard homeowners insurance policies typically do not cover flood damage.
This means that without flood insurance, you could be left paying out of pocket for repairs and replacements in the event of a flood.
For high-value homeowners, the cost of flood damage can be substantial, given the value of the home and its contents.
By adding flood insurance to your insurance portfolio, you can protect your investment and ensure that you have the resources to recover from a flooding event.
Flood insurance is available through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and some private insurers.
The cost of flood insurance varies based on factors such as your home’s location, elevation, and flood risk.
Water backup coverage protects against damage caused by water backing up from a sewer or drain, such as flooding from clogged pipes or heavy rainfall.
This coverage is particularly important for high-value homes with basements or lower levels, which are more vulnerable to water backup incidents.
Without water backup coverage, you could face significant out-of-pocket expenses to repair water damage and replace damaged belongings.
By adding this coverage to your high-value homeowners insurance policy, you can have peace of mind knowing that you’re protected against this common risk.
A disappearing deductible is an innovative feature that rewards you for being claim-free.
Here’s how it works: your deductible decreases over time if you don’t file any claims.
This means that if you do need to file a claim in the future, your out-of-pocket costs will be lower.
For high-value homeowners, a disappearing deductible can be especially beneficial, as the cost of repairs or replacements for luxury homes and belongings can be substantial.
By reducing your deductible over time, you can minimize your financial burden in the event of a covered loss.
In today’s digital age, cyber threats are a growing concern for high-value homeowners.
Sophisticated technology systems, such as smart home devices and network-connected appliances, can be vulnerable to cyberattacks, data breaches, and ransomware attacks.

Mold and mildew growth can be a serious health hazard and cause significant property damage, particularly in high-value homes with complex systems and hard-to-reach areas.
