I have less than one million dollars in assets. Can I benefit from umbrella insurance?

Many Texas residents may be confused about what umbrella insurance is and whether they can benefit from this type of insurance. However, our team at Texas Independent Insurance of Allen, TX can help Texas residents understand umbrella insurance and how it can help them. 

What is Umbrella Insurance?

Umbrella insurance is liability insurance. This type of umbrella insurance covers homeowners, auto, or watercraft insurance. This insurance covers things that exceed the current limits of your regular insurance. Umbrella insurance covers your existing personal assets and future assets. This includes wages, your inheritance, or even lottery winnings. Umbrella insurance is designed to cover the cost of a lawsuit or any judgment based on an accident or incident on your property. 

Don’t Need to Be a Millionaire.

Umbrella insurance is generally a good idea if you have more than 100K in assets. You should have more coverage than assets. For example, if you have a million in assets, a million-dollar judgment wouldn’t cover it. It’s best to buy more coverage than you need.

Other Considerations.

Umbrella insurance delivers big benefits for a small price. In fact, a $500k policy would probably be $185 a year. This is a small cost for someone who has assets that he or she wants to protect. This insurance helps pinch in circumstances where you’ve maxed out your regular insurance and need extra insurance to cover something. If you expect your assets to continue to grow, umbrella insurance may be a good investment. This insurance has the ability to create peace of mind when it comes to protecting your assets. Few of us could afford to handle a financial crisis if our assets were compromised. If you have questions about umbrella insurance and wonder if you could benefit from it, please give us a call. We’re here to answer your questions.
