AmAssurance Houseowner & Household Insurance does not only protect your building from loss and damage due to named perils, but also the contents (yourself, family, property and personal effects) within your home in one comprehensive home insurance plan.
Knowing the types of covered perils is as crucial as that of the situations you are insured for. AmAssurance Houseowner & Householder Insurance makes sure you understand what you are covered for by branching the coverage into 3 sections:
Section 1: Building – covering your physical home from all named perils ranging from natural disasters, freak accidents and criminal attempts
Section 2: Household Contents – yourself, family, property (including domestic worker’s) and personal effects against aforementioned perils
Section 3A: Rental Loss – when your tenant fails to pay for the rent
Section 3B: Personal Liability – up to RM50,000 when someone got injured within your insured property and claim for it
You can be flexible with your home insurance coverage, however subject to an additional premium.

Always check with your insurance agent regarding this matter to avoid being underinsured or paying too much.
