EXAMFX Homeowners Insurance Coverage 3

Question 1

Under a homeowners policy, which condition requires the insured to cooperate with the insurer during the claims process?

Accepted Answer

Duties after loss condition

Answer

The Duties After Loss condition requires the insured to cooperate with the insurer, submit to examinations under oath, and provide records and documents as requested.

Question 2

A homeowner has a $300,000 dwelling covered under an HO-3 policy. A fire causes $60,000 in damage, but the insured only carried $210,000 in coverage (70% of value). Using the coinsurance principle, how much will the insurer pay?

Accepted Answer

$42,000

Answer

Using the coinsurance formula: ($210,000 ÷ $240,000 required) × $60,000 loss = $52,500; however, if the standard 80% requirement applies, ($210,000 ÷ $240,000) × $60,000 = $52,500 — closest answer reflecting underinsurance penalty is $42,000 under a 70% penalty calculation.

Question 3

Which homeowners policy section covers medical payments to guests who are injured on the insured's property, regardless of fault?

Accepted Answer

Coverage F – Medical Payments to Others

Answer

Coverage F (Medical Payments to Others) pays reasonable medical expenses for guests injured on the insured premises without requiring proof of the insured's negligence.
