Homeowners insurance provides property coverage that safeguards both your house and belongings, as well as liability costs related to accidents occurring on your property.
National General offers several standard policy options and discounts, but has an excessive NAIC complaint index and does not offer telematics programs to provide safe driving discounts.
Homeowners Insurance
Homeowners insurance is an invaluable investment for any property owner. By purchasing a comprehensive policy, it can provide financial coverage for repairs or replacement of items in your house that have been damaged by fire, water, lightning or other events covered under standard policies. Furthermore, valuable items like jewelry and artwork may need to be protected through endorsements added onto a homeowner’s policy – some insurers even allow you to save money by bundling both policies together under one provider.
The General is an established carrier with more than 50 years of experience, boasting high ratings from A.M. Best and providing coverage in 44 states. Their streamlined online application process and 24/7 claims reporting via phone or mobile app make getting insured fast simple for customers.
Premiums from The General are higher than other carriers’ rates due to its focus on high-risk drivers and homeowners. To find an economically priced policy, it’s wise to shop around and compare quotes with multiple insurers before making your choice.
To keep your homeowners insurance rates affordable, there are several things you can do to reduce risk and qualify for discounts. These include installing a home security system, smoke detectors, deadbolt locks and maintaining an excellent credit history. Some states even sponsor high-risk homeowners insurance pools for individuals who cannot find coverage through private markets – for more information regarding these pools contact your state’s insurance department; it should have a list of insurers offering high-risk home policies in your area.
Auto Insurance
The General offers auto insurance policies in most states, though the company does not underwrite policies directly. Instead, its partners such as Hippo and National General provide various coverage types through The General’s network of providers; additional independent carriers also operate through this affiliation. Allstate is also part of this family of carriers offering outstanding financial ratings and superior customer service ratings – All of which make up its parent company Allstate Group Inc.
The General offers SR-22 insurance policies to high-risk drivers. This type of policy may be required in certain states if a driver has poor credit or lapsed coverage, and advertises competitive rates and several discounts; however, J.D. Power customer satisfaction studies don’t include them and its annual complaint rate exceeds industry norms.
Customers may purchase auto insurance either online or by phone. Along with requesting quotes and making payments online or viewing their coverages, users may make payments and view coverages via the website or by calling our 24-hour claims representatives who are always ready to assist with any problems that may arise.
Customers can select from three levels of homeowner’s coverage and add-ons that meet their individual needs, providing for customisable policies that meet them exactly. These coverages include dwelling coverage, which pays to repair or rebuild the home in the event of a covered loss, other structures coverage to protect detached garages, sheds and fencing systems from damages, as well as personal property coverage that covers items such as furniture, clothing, technology gadgets and more after a covered loss. The General offers additional protection to policyholders through optional endorsements such as water backup and equipment breakdown coverage. Alongside these options, The General provides policyholders with access to its dedicated claims team as well as an easy-to-use app for submitting documents, tracking progress and receiving payments.
Renters Insurance
Rental insurance policies cover personal belongings stolen or damaged while living in an unowned residence, and may pay to temporarily rehouse you due to circumstances covered by your policy (for instance fire or natural disaster). When selecting a policy it is essential that it provides enough coverage of the value of your possessions as well as additional living expense coverage – some insurers offer this coverage automatically while others offer it as an add-on.
Some landlords require renters insurance as a condition of renting their property, minimizing liability should anything happen that’s the landlord’s responsibility, such as an accident caused by their tenant or natural disasters like flooding. Renters insurance can also help protect items like jewelry and cars against theft and other forms of peril.
Renters insurance typically does not cover earthquakes and floods, however additional coverage can be purchased to accommodate them. Furthermore, it does not include loss or damage to roommate belongings (unless they’re listed in your policy), expenses related to running a home business, etc.
As with homeowners insurance, renters insurance providers generally don’t consider your FICO credit score when setting your premium; instead they use credit-based insurance scores instead to determine your risk of filing claims and are likely to charge those with poorer scores higher rates due to increased claim frequency. Other factors affecting renters insurance premiums may include your location, crime rate and presence of pools or trampolines in the home.
Life Insurance
The General offers life insurance from multiple providers. Customers can get quotes for term or whole life policies with mortgage life, final expense insurance and burial options available to them.

The General offers homeowners insurance for one and two-family homes, mobile homes and manufactured homes – customers can select between three levels of protection as well as add-on options like water backup coverage and equipment breakdown protection.
Most of our homeowners insurance policies are HO-3 Special Form policies. These cover everything from the structure and personal property of a home to liability costs and additional living expenses; additionally they can be extended to provide flood and earthquake coverage, although typically not included as standard coverage types.
An HO-3 policy typically provides coverage of personal property up to $25,000 per occurrence and replacement cost coverage for dwelling and its contents, medical payments are limited to $1,000 per incident and an optional standard deductible of $1,500 is usually applicable.
The General offers affordable policies to customers who may be having difficulty elsewhere, while offering SR-22 filing services and bundling discounts to those with good credit as well. Although primarily focused on low-risk customers, competitive home and auto rates can be found for good customers with good credit as well.
