Dwelling Coverage

Dwelling coverage is the part of a homeowners policy that insures the physical structure of your home, set to a limit that should reflect the cost to rebuild it.

How it shows up

When the dwelling limit lags rising rebuilding costs, the home becomes underinsured, one of the most common personal-lines gaps.
