Questions insurance companies ask

I need to get started shopping for homeowners insurance.

What kind of info do I need to know about the house?

I found a form online that asked about when electric/plumbing were renovated...do I need to know that? How do I get the information?

TIA!

I work for an insurance company in NJ


Here are some of the question we ask


How old is the home, the heater, ( is the heater gas, oil or electric) the roof.

When was the electrical and plumbing last updated.

Do you have a oil tank? If so where is it located


Hope this helps, if you have any question please feel free to fm me

If you can't ask the previous owner, then I am not sure.

They will ask you if you have a dog, what breed it is. Any new renovations..if you have a fireplace or woodstove, deck if you have co's for them, if you ahve a basement, where your heating system is stored, what kind (oil, gas), etc.

Would I have to get in touch directly with the current owner or is this something that should be done through the REA's or attorney?
