Dwelling PolicyQuestion 117 of 215
Which ISO Dwelling Property form provides open-perils coverage on the dwelling structure but only named-perils coverage on personal property?
a.DP-1 Basic Form
b.DP-3 Special Form
c.DP-2 Broad Form
d.HO-3 Special Form
Explanation
The DP-3 Special Form insures the dwelling and other structures on an open-perils (all-risk) basis, meaning any cause of loss not specifically excluded is covered. Personal property under DP-3, however, is still written on a named-perils basis. DP-1 uses named perils throughout, DP-2 uses broader named perils throughout, and HO-3 is a homeowners form, not a dwelling form.
