How Coinsurance Penalties Can Cost You Thousands

from Insurance Conversations with Fexingo: Life, Health, Auto, and Protecting Your Finances · host Fexingo

Lucas and Luna break down the coinsurance clause in property insurance — a little-known rule that can slash your claim payout if you underinsure your home or business. Using the example of a $400,000 house insured for only $300,000, they explain the 80% rule, how the penalty formula works, and why getting an accurate replacement-cost estimate matters more than chasing a lower premium. They also share tips on how to avoid the coinsurance trap when renovating or buying a new policy.
