What to know about Home insurance brokers
Home insurance in Australia turns on one number: the sum insured. Get it wrong and the shortfall does not simply appear at total loss, it reduces every claim you make. Most policies contain a coinsurance or averaging clause that applies whenever the cover falls below roughly 80 to 90 per cent of the replacement value, and it limits the insurer's liability to the proportion of that value you actually insured.
