Sample questions & answers
1. A dwelling property (DP) policy is most appropriate for:
A rental or non-owner-occupied dwelling
Dwelling policies suit dwellings not eligible for a homeowners policy, typically rented or non-owner-occupied homes. They offer property coverage with optional liability.
2. The DP-1 (basic form) dwelling policy primarily covers losses on:
Limited named perils such as fire
The DP-1 Basic Form covers a limited list of named perils (fire, lightning, internal explosion, with extended coverage and vandalism optional). It generally settles losses at actual cash value.
3. Compared with a homeowners policy, a basic dwelling policy generally:
Excludes personal liability unless added
Dwelling forms do not include personal liability or theft coverage. Liability is added through the personal liability supplement and theft through an endorsement such as Broad Theft (DP 04 72).
4. Fair rental value coverage under a dwelling policy pays the landlord for:
Lost rent while repairs are made
Coverage D, Fair Rental Value, pays the rental value lost, less expenses that do not continue, while the rented part of the dwelling is unfit to live in after a covered loss.
