Rising above historic inflation

Why you may need more home and auto coverage this year

Inflation is not new, but has recently reached unprecedented levels. WHY?

Home inflation trends include:

26% increase in building materials

88% of firms experiencing project delays

89% of contractors having difficulty finding workers

94% of Fortune 100 companies report supply chain disruptions

Auto inflation factors include:

15% increase in repair costs

12% increase in new car prices due to limited inventory

40% increase in used car prices

8.2% increase in hourly labor

30% increase in rental car costs

Has your coverage kept up with inflation?

Rising replacement costs means what used to be covered by your policy may no longer be sufficient. This can impact everything from the cost to rebuild your home to the amount of rental car coverage you’ll need to avoid paying out of pocket.

FOR EXAMPLE: Bill’s policy has $500,000 in Coverage A to rebuild his home. However, Bill may now need $600,000 in coverage with the jump in materials and labor costs.

Review your policy with an agent and consider...

1. Increasing your coverage to avoid potential gaps in the current market
2. Any renovations you made this past year
3. Higher deductibles ($1,000 on auto, $2,500 on home) are becoming more common
4. Current policy discounts
5. Bundle your home, auto, and other coverage for better pricing
