Home business solutions
If you are reading this, you are probably among the more than 15 million homeowners that operates a home-based business*. Unfortunately, 60% of those homeowners do not have the proper insurance coverage for their business.
The Hanover’s home business solutions program features four a la carte coverage options designed to offer protection to homeowners who operate certain types of business out of their home, or engage in periodic short-term rentals of their home.
These options can be added to your Hanover homeowners policy, so you won’t need a separate policy to cover your home business.

Home-based businesses
One example: Paul runs his own marketing firm, and has one other employee, a designer. His company works with a few local businesses to help them support their branding efforts. They keep records of previous sales and campaigns in the company, along with payroll.
More examples: personal accountants. e-commerce, IT contractors
Sole proprietorships with inventory
One example: Hannah is an artist who earns income painting large landscape images. She has a small shed where she keeps paintings that she has completed but not yet sold.
More examples: high-inventory direct sales, craftspeople, artisans
Business pursuits
One example: Holly is a music instructor who gives lessons both in her home and at the homes of her students. She has little inventory, so she only needs liability coverage.
More examples: low-inventory direct sales, educators, yoga instructors, consultants
Home sharing
Who's it for? Homeowners that use their home to generate income, and need protection against theft and property damage
One example: Josh travels a lot for work and decides to offer his home as a rental through a home-sharing app, like Airbnb, while he’s away.
