The Importance of Vacation Home Insurance

Here is an excerpt from a new blog post at GreggMarcus.com:
If you considering a vacation home, it is important to remember that this home also needs to be insured at the same level (or higher) than your primary residence. In this post, Gregg S. Marcus, a Long Island Insurance Executive lists the important reasons to insure a second home.
Similar to standard homeowner’s insurance, vacation home insurance protects your second home and possessions kept there against the following named perils :Storm damage (snow, rain, hail, wind, tornadoes, etc.), fire, lightning, burglary and vandalism. Vacation home insurance also offers liability insurance to cover incidents such as a slip-and-fall accident, dog bite or other accident happening on your property. If your vacation home resides in an area with threats of severe weather or history of earthquakes, you will need to add additional perils such as flood and earthquake insurance.
