How much is personal property at another residence covered under a specific condition?

Personal property at another residence is typically covered by homeowners insurance under certain conditions with specific limits. The correct option states that this coverage is at a level of 10% of Coverage C (which refers to personal property coverage) or $1,000, whichever is greater. This condition reflects common practice in many homeowners policies, which provide coverage for personal property even when it is not located at the primary residence, but with certain limitations.

The rationale behind setting this limit as 10% of Coverage C or a base amount ensures that there is a safety net for policyholders who have items stored or used at other locations, while also maintaining a manageable coverage limit that aligns with the overall policy structure. The focus on the greater of the two amounts allows for flexibility depending on the insured’s total personal property coverage.

Understanding these coverage limits helps insured individuals plan for their property and make informed decisions regarding additional coverage or endorsements if they frequently keep valuable items at another residence.
