You may not be aware that your homeowner insurance policy does not cover your property from earthquake damage. While you may think you do not need earthquake coverage, the facts about earthquakes and earthquake potential in the US tell a different story:
Earthquake insurance can be purchased by homeowners and renters as a separate policy or what is called an endorsement to protect your property from earthquakes and post-quake damage, like mudflows, landslides, and uneven settling of the earth.
How can you protect yourself, your family, and your property from an earthquake? If you are in a high-risk zone, take earthquake preparedness classes and have a family emergency plan. Minimize risk to your home by fastening appliances and heavy furniture, as well as by inspecting your dwelling for anything that could become a danger during a quake.
Purchase earthquake insurance to cover you in the event of an earthquake and its aftermath. This can help repair or replace your structure and items in it. Also, it may be able to cover the cost of living elsewhere if your home becomes uninhabitable during rebuilding.
