Sample questions & answers

1. A New Mexico dwelling (DP) policy differs from a homeowners policy mainly because it:

It is often used for rentals and lacks built-in liability coverage

The dwelling policy is designed for dwellings such as rentals and does not automatically include the broad homeowners liability and contents package.

2. A New Mexico dwelling left vacant beyond the period allowed by the policy may result in:

Restricted coverage for certain perils

Many policies reduce or suspend coverage for certain perils once a dwelling has been vacant beyond the stated period.

3. Under the ISO dwelling policy (DP-3), the coverage that pays a landlord the lost rent when a covered loss makes the rented part of the dwelling unfit for use is:

Coverage D - Fair Rental Value

Coverage D pays the fair rental value of the part of the described location rented to others when a covered loss makes it unfit for normal use.

4. Under the ISO DP-3, the other structures coverage allows the insured to use up to what percentage of the Coverage A limit for other structures?

10%

The DP-3 lets the insured use up to 10% of the Coverage A limit for loss to other structures; this is additional insurance.
