A dwelling fire policy provides coverage for damage or loss to a home and its contents caused by specific perils, such as fire, lightning, or smoke.
Unlike comprehensive homeowners insurance, it typically offers more limited coverage than a traditional homeowner policy and is suitable for non-owner-occupied or rental properties. The policy may include dwelling coverage for the structure, personal property coverage, and liability protection specifically selected by the policy purchaser. It’s always important to review policy terms and exclusions for an understanding of the extent of coverage.
