What is a Loss Settlement Option?
A loss settlement option is the monetary value that your insurance company pays you after a loss. The settlement amount doesn’t include your deductible. So, you’ll be reimbursed your settlement amount after you pay your deductible. It’s always good to plan for a loss before it happens by selecting your loss settlement amounts when you set up your insurance policy.
Typically, your loss settlement options are actual cash value, replacement cost, or agreed value.
3 Loss Settlement Options:
Actual Cash Value
Often the most affordable option, actual cash value is the price the item is based on at today’s value. ACV is replacement cost minus depreciation, up to the set policy limits.
Replacement Cost
Replacement cost will cover the price you paid for the original item – up to a certain amount. This does not consider depreciation, but you’ll get more money back if you have a loss.
Agreed Value
Agreed value is the price the adjuster and the insured agree upon as the price that you’ll get after an insured loss.
It’s a good plan to write down a list of all the major items in your home, including your receipts. Don’t forget to include your small, expensive stuff that may be worth a lot of money to replace.
