Business Insurance is a Must! « Personal Finance Blog / Money ...

Business insurance is a must for any company that has thing of value in their inventory, whether it is electronic, paper, any type of equipment or something that would be difficult or impossible to replace if stolen or damaged in some way. One can never really know how much of an inconvenience – or even a disaster – it can be if something is damaged. Even the small things are important as I have found out.

I know I’ve talked a lot about my catastrophes in my home office, which is where I do all of my work. I was reading through my insurance policy today to make sure that the items I plan to claim are covered under the policy. They are.

The thing about this particular insurance is that it’s as cheap as chips and covers basically everything I would need for it to cover. Of course there are a lot of exclusions, which is an important thing to know. The biggest exclusions usually involve floods or other acts of God. Although now you can expect to see acts or terrorism listed as exclusions. I was surprised to see it on my policy. I must have forgotten about that as it has been a while since I have read the entire thing.

If you have a business of any kind, even a small office at home, do consider business insurance. It is certainly worth the pittance it costs to protect something extremely valuable.

How can I buy home insurance if I use one room for my business?

Hello there! I am a freelance web publisher so basically I work from home using my laptop. My husband and I just bought our first home. The other day I was shopping around for home insurance when an agent told me if I run my home business many carriers will mark me as "not eligible" for home insurance. Is this true? How do I get around that? What's the best home insurance company?

True, but it depends on the exact type of business.

I'd think, with no foot traffic, and no business property exposure except a laptop, and no manufacturing going on, most homeowners carriers won't have a problem - If you carry business liability insurance.

Even if you don't want to carry insurance for the business, you'll still likely be able to find an insurer willing to cover the homeowners part (none will cover the business part), you'll just have to look a little harder. Use an independent agent, and they'll be able to take care of you.
