Homeowners Policy (HO)Question 333 of 474
A homeowner runs a side business from the house and keeps $7,000 of stock and equipment there. Under Coverage C on a standard unendorsed form, business property on the residence premises is limited to:
a.$500 for that property
b.$7,000, the full amount
c.$2,500 for that property
d.$1,500 for that property
Explanation
Business property on the residence premises carries a $2,500 special limit on the standard form, so $4,500 of the $7,000 exposure is uninsured. The $1,500 figure is the jewelry-theft and watercraft limit, and $500 is the credit card and forgery amount. A home business of this size belongs on a business owners policy or an endorsement.
