Yes, standard homeowners insurance policies in Georgia cover tornado damage as part of wind coverage. You don't need a separate tornado policy. However, you'll have a wind deductible (typically 1-5% of your dwelling coverage) that you must pay before insurance covers the rest. Make sure your policy includes replacement cost coverage so you're not hit with depreciation deductions after a tornado damages your home.
Home insurance in Calhoun typically costs $745 to $1,013 annually, which is significantly lower than Georgia's state average of $2,217 per year. Your actual premium depends on your home's value, age, construction type, credit score, and the coverage limits you choose. Shopping around can save you up to $351 annually, so getting multiple quotes is essential.
Standard homeowners policies don't cover flood damage, even if flooding results from severe weather or tornadoes. Given Calhoun's location in the Appalachian foothills where heavy rain can cause flash flooding, flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program is worth considering. Check FEMA's flood maps for your specific address to determine your risk level.
Replacement cost coverage pays to repair or replace damaged property with new materials at current prices, with no deduction for depreciation. Actual cash value coverage pays replacement cost minus depreciation, which can leave you paying thousands out of pocket. For example, a 15-year-old roof damaged by a tornado might only receive 25% payout under actual cash value, while replacement cost would cover a new roof entirely.
As home values in Calhoun increase—median prices rose 9.8% year-over-year to $279,800 in early 2025—you need to ensure your dwelling coverage keeps pace. If your coverage hasn't been updated to reflect current replacement costs, you could be underinsured and face a significant coverage gap after a major loss. Review your policy annually and adjust coverage limits based on current home values and construction costs.
Georgia doesn't legally require homeowners insurance, but if you have a mortgage, your lender will require it as a condition of the loan. Lenders typically require enough dwelling coverage to fully rebuild your home. Even if you own your home outright, insurance is strongly recommended given tornado risk, severe weather, and the significant financial investment your home represents.
