Learn about insurance coverage options specific to Burlington residents.
Burlington home insurance averages $2,381-$2,654/year. Learn about flood risk from the Mississippi River, historic home coverage, and tornado protection.
Burlington homeowners typically pay between $913 and $1,241 per year for home insurance, which works out to roughly $76-$103 per month. This is below both the state average of $1,226-$1,910 and the national average of $2,777. Your actual rate depends on your home's value, age, construction type, coverage limits, and deductible.
No, standard homeowners insurance policies in Massachusetts do not cover flood damage. You need a separate flood insurance policy through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or a private flood insurer. If your Burlington home is near the Shawsheen River or in a designated flood zone, your mortgage lender may require flood insurance.
No. Massachusetts law prohibits insurance companies from using credit scores when setting home insurance rates. Your premium is based solely on home-related factors like the age of your home, construction type, location, coverage limits, deductible, and claims history. This makes Massachusetts unique compared to most other states.
The primary weather risks include severe thunderstorms with high winds, occasional tornadoes, winter nor'easters, and ice storms. Falling trees cause the most home damage during summer storms, while ice dams and heavy snow can damage roofs in winter. Wind and falling object damage are covered by standard policies, but maintaining your home's roof, gutters, and trees helps prevent damage.
Your dwelling coverage should equal the full cost to rebuild your home from the ground up, not your home's market value. With Burlington's median home price at $850,000 and high construction costs in the Boston metro area, many homes need $600,000-$1,000,000+ in dwelling coverage. Ask your insurance agent for a replacement cost estimate based on current construction prices, your home's square footage, and any custom features.
The biggest savings come from bundling your home and auto insurance with the same company (10-20% discount) and shopping around for quotes—Burlington homeowners can save up to $430 by comparing rates. Also ask about discounts for security systems, being claims-free, newer homes, and choosing a higher deductible. Getting at least three quotes from different insurers ensures you're getting a competitive rate.
