Curious about who's covered by your homeowners insurance policy? While many articles focus on what's covered, the question of who is often overlooked. Let's shed light on this essential aspect to ensure you, your loved ones, and even your furry friends are protected.
Who's Protected under Your Homeowners Insurance?
- You and your spouse, living in the same household.
- Additional family members, such as kids, parents, cousins, and more.
- Individuals under 21 in your care or a relative's care.

Who's Not Automatically Covered?
- Roommates, significant others, and tenants.
- Visitors, employees, or contractors working on your property.
