Home Insurance

Calculating your Home or Contents sum insured...

Avoiding the risk of underinsurance is essential for every home owner. For your insurance to be effective, it needs to be both adequate and up to date. Use our on-line calculators as a quick and easy way to help you estimate the cost of replacing your home and the things inside it.

 

Your Home...

Rebuild costs vary from state to state and are affected by the size, style and standard of your home and the materials used to build it. Homes built on sloping land, or those with extensive fencing, paving and retaining walls have higher rebuild costs.

Often forgotten, the calculators automatically include the cost to remove debris and professional fees (such as architects and engineers).

For a quick estimate use the Home Building Quick Calculator.

 

Your Contents...

Replacement costs vary depending on the quantity and quality of your contents; and large homes tend to be more extensively furnished than units or townhouses.

So, your sum insured will vary depending on the quality of your furnishings.

Also some high risk items are of such a personal nature that their value varies according to taste, for example sporting, photographic and entertainment equipment and jewellery.
