Is it mandatory that you carry homeowners insurance?
Justin Smith asked:
My wife and I have two kids, and we have been forced to live on a tighter budget for the past 6 months. Allstate just raised our homeowners insurance by $50/month and that is more than we can afford right now. Is there a law that require we have homeowners insurance? Does our mortgage company require it?

Will homeowners insurance pay to fix a leaky roof following a bad rain storm?
Rob asked:
I plan on calling the insurance company tomorrow, but before I do, I thought I’d ask here first, just out of curiosity, to see if this is generally a covered expense or not (and if it isn’t normally covered, if there are ever exceptions to allow something like this.)

A bad thunderstrom blew through, and following this a leak y wet spot developed the ceilings in one of the rooms. Not bad, but definitely coming through the roof, and definitely something that needs to be repaired.
Should I expect homeowners to cover something like this?
thanks.

Will having supplemental homeowners insurance cover my deductible?
onebigfool asked:
If I buy supplemental homeowners insurance will it cover my $1000 deductible I have to pay now? Say I have $3000 worth of damage. My current insurance only pays $2000 because I owe the $1000 per claim. But if I had another homeownwers policy couldn’t I file a claim with them too?
