Q: What are the insurance requirements on a leased car?

Q: Is homeowners insurance required?

A: Homeowners insurance requirements can vary depending on your state and situation, but most lenders will require it if you have home financing.

Q: How would you explain renters insurance?

A: Renters insurance is a policy designed to help protect your personal belongings and provide liability coverage while you're renting a home or apartment. It focuses on your possessions and potential risks, rather than the building itself, which is typically covered by your landlord's policy. Have questions? Lisa in New Martinsville can walk you through your options.

Q: How does life insurance work at a basic level?

A: Life insurance is designed to help provide financial support to your loved ones if something happens to you.
