Home Insurance in Great Falls — FAQ

Standard homeowners insurance (HO-3) covers your dwelling (structure), other structures on the property (fences, detached garages), personal property, liability for injuries that occur on your property, and additional living expenses if your home is uninhabitable after a covered loss. It does not automatically cover floods or earthquakes — those require separate policies.
