Question 1

How much does home insurance cost in Greenwood Village?

Accepted Answer

Home insurance in Greenwood Village typically costs significantly more than Colorado's statewide average of around $4,099 annually because of high property values. With median home values exceeding $1.3 million, you're likely paying $6,000-$10,000+ per year depending on your coverage limits, deductible structure, and claims history. Your actual premium depends on your specific property's replacement cost, age, and features.

Question 2

What is a hail deductible and how does it work in Colorado?

Accepted Answer

In Colorado, hail deductibles are typically calculated as a percentage of your dwelling coverage—usually 1-5%—rather than a flat dollar amount. If your home is insured for $1 million with a 2% hail deductible, you pay the first $20,000 of damage before insurance coverage begins. Wind and hail are bundled together, so either type of damage triggers the same deductible.

Question 3

Will my insurance cover cosmetic hail damage?

Accepted Answer

Many Colorado home insurance policies include cosmetic damage exclusions that deny coverage for hail damage affecting only appearance, not function. If hail dents your shingles but they still keep water out, your claim might be denied. Before purchasing a policy, check for cosmetic damage clauses and ask if you can add an endorsement to remove or limit this exclusion.

Question 4

Can my insurance company drop me after filing hail claims?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Colorado has no laws preventing non-renewal due to hail damage, so insurers can choose not to renew your policy if you've filed multiple claims. While they can't cancel mid-term without cause, they can decline to renew when your policy expires. This makes it important to weigh whether damage exceeds your deductible enough to justify filing a claim.

Question 5

What should I do immediately after a hailstorm damages my home?

Accepted Answer

Document all damage with time-stamped photographs from every angle, then contact your insurance company immediately to report the claim and get a claim number. Make temporary repairs to prevent further damage and save all receipts. Colorado insurance laws require prompt notification, and delays can complicate your claim process or even result in denial.

Question 6

How much dwelling coverage do I need for a Greenwood Village home?

Accepted Answer

Your dwelling coverage should reflect your home's replacement cost, not market value. With high-end finishes common in Greenwood Village and rising construction costs, rebuilding could exceed your home's $1.3 million market value. Consider guaranteed replacement cost coverage if available, and review your limits annually to ensure they keep pace with construction cost inflation.
