Yes, you should seriously consider it. About 4% of Chanhassen properties have a greater than 26% chance of severe flood damage over the next 30 years, and many of those aren't in designated FEMA flood zones. Standard home insurance doesn't cover flooding, so if heavy rains overwhelm drainage systems or nearby lakes overflow, you're paying out of pocket for all repairs. Flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program is relatively affordable and can save you tens of thousands in damage costs.
Minnesota has experienced a surge in severe weather claims, particularly from hail and wind damage. Golf ball-sized hail hit the metro area in 2025, and flooding events have become more frequent. Insurance companies paid out massive claims and are now raising rates by an average of 15% statewide to cover those losses. This translates to about $534 more per year for the average Minnesota homeowner.
You need enough to cover the full replacement cost of rebuilding your home from scratch—not just the market value. With Chanhassen's median home value at $567,746 and detached homes averaging $745,088, your replacement cost could easily exceed $700,000 once you factor in current construction costs, labor, and materials. Get a replacement cost estimate from your insurer or a contractor, and use that number as your dwelling coverage target.
Absolutely. Bundle your home and auto insurance for 10-25% savings, raise your deductible to $1,000 or higher, maintain strong credit, and ask about discounts for home improvements like newer roofs, security systems, or impact-resistant materials. Shopping around and comparing quotes from at least three insurers can also uncover significantly lower rates for the same coverage.
If you have significant assets—which most Chanhassen residents do given the median household income of $138,034—umbrella insurance is essential. Standard home policies typically include $100,000 to $300,000 in liability coverage, but a serious injury lawsuit can easily exceed that. An umbrella policy adds $1-2 million in extra liability protection for just a few hundred dollars annually, protecting your savings, investments, and future earnings from a catastrophic lawsuit.
Minnesota's top threats are severe thunderstorms with large hail, tornadoes, straight-line winds, ice storms, and flooding. Recent events include golf ball-sized hail in 2025 and Minnesota River flooding in 2024. These weather patterns cause roof damage, siding damage, water intrusion, and fallen trees—all of which drive insurance claims. Make sure your policy includes comprehensive coverage for wind, hail, and water damage, and strongly consider adding flood insurance.
