Sample questions & answers
1. A dwelling policy is most commonly used to insure:
A rental or non-primary residence
NCDOI notes dwelling policies are typically used for properties that are not the owner's primary residence, such as rental, vacation, or vacant homes.
2. The DP-1 (basic) dwelling form provides coverage on:
A named-perils basis
The DP-1 basic form covers a limited set of named perils such as fire and lightning, with other perils available by endorsement.
3. Compared with the DP-1, the DP-3 (special) dwelling form generally provides:
Open-perils coverage on the dwelling
The DP-3 special form generally insures the dwelling and other structures on an open-perils basis, providing broader coverage than the named-perils DP-1.
4. A key difference between a basic dwelling policy and a homeowners policy is that the dwelling form usually:
Lacks automatic liability and broad theft
Dwelling forms focus on the structure and limited perils and typically do not automatically include the theft and broad personal liability coverage found in homeowners policies, though some can be added.
