North Carolina requires 50/100/50 coverage for all policies issued or renewed after July 1, 2025. This means $50,000 per person for bodily injury, $100,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $50,000 for property damage. You also need underinsured motorist coverage at the same levels, which protects you if someone hits you without adequate insurance.

These rates are significantly lower than North Carolina's state average of $3,237, making Garner one of the more affordable areas in the Triangle for homeowners insurance.
If you're near Lake Benson or any creeks, flood insurance is worth considering. Standard homeowners policies don't cover flooding from rising water—only water damage from things like burst pipes or roof leaks. You can purchase flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program or private carriers, and it's relatively affordable in areas that aren't high-risk flood zones.
The North Carolina Department of Insurance approved statewide base rate increases of 7.5% effective June 1, 2025, with another 7.5% increase scheduled for June 1, 2026. These increases add approximately $500 per year to the average homeowner's premium and apply across the state, though Garner's rates remain below the state average even with the increases.
While North Carolina doesn't legally require renters insurance, many landlords in Garner do require it as part of the lease agreement. Even if it's not required, renters insurance is extremely affordable at $15-$30 per month and provides valuable liability protection plus coverage for your belongings if they're stolen or damaged by fire, storms, or other covered events.
