Introduction
Your
Home is your most valuable possession and your biggest investment.
It is where your life savings would be.
Have
you ever thought what might be the consequence should your
Home be destroyed by fire or natural catastrophe ?
If you
were to suddenly lose your Home due to fire or if the Contents
in it were damaged, you probably could not afford to replace
everything at once. What if someone sued you for an injury
or damage caused by your negligence ? The cost of defending
that suit and paying third party damages could run into thousands
of dollars.
