Insuring Big Ticket Holiday Purchases
In this festive season, while the shopping rush is in full swing, insurance may be the last thing on your mind. However, with high-value gifts like jewelry, high-end electronics, and other specialty items filling your shopping bags, now is an excellent time to consider how you protect these precious investments. We'd like to introduce you to a Personal Article Policy (PAP) and discuss why it's worth considering for your expensive Christmas purchases.
Understanding a Personal Article Policy:
A Personal Article Policy is designed to provide protection above and beyond your typical homeowners, condo, or renters insurance. Commodities with specific value such as fine arts, jewelry, and other unique and costly items that you've purchased may not typically be covered in your general insurance. If covered, it's often not up to their full charged value.
Why do you need a Personal Article Policy?
1. Adequate Coverage for Valuable Items:
A standard homeowners policy includes coverage for personal property. However, the value might be subject to a deductible, and only up to a particular limit. These limits could range but may not be sufficient to cover expensive items. That's when a Personal Article Policy comes into play, providing coverage that matches the full value of your valuable items.
2. Comprehensive Protection:
A Personal Article policy offers coverage one can't usually get from a standard policy—for instance, accidental damage or loss. The scope of protection under a PAP is wider and often includes threats like theft, accidental loss, or natural disasters.
3. Easy Inventory Management:
Keeping track of valuable items could be burdensome. A PAP simplifies this process. Every item or collection on the policy is detailed specifically, making it easier to keep track of values and how much coverage each item has.
Amidst the bustle of the Christmas season purchasing and wrapping gifts, it's essential not to overlook the value of those items and how adequately they are insured. As you invest your hard-earned money into precious items, ensure you've got the right protection for them with a Personal Article policy.
