PERSONAL ARTICLES
In the insurance world, "personal articles" are items covered by a special endorsement added to a policy. Some of these items are subject to special limits that may mean that you do not have the coverage that you need unless you purchase additional coverage. Examples are: Jewelry or Furs.
FLOOD
An overflowing of a large amount of water beyond its normal confines, especially over what is normally dry land. Standard homeowners insurance doesn't cover flood damage at all. FACT: You may be required to have flood insurance. Congress has mandated federally regulated or insured lenders to require flood insurance on mortgaged properties that are located in areas at high risk of flooding
UMBRELLA
An umbrella insurance policy is extra liability insurance coverage that goes beyond the limits of the insured's home, auto or watercraft insurance. It provides an additional layer of security to those who are at risk for being sued for damages to other people's property or injuries caused to others in an accident.
