A buyer pays $420,000 for a house. A recent appraisal values the lot alone at $130,000, and a contractor estimates $310,000 to rebuild the structure. The dwelling limit should be based on:

a.$290,000
b.$420,000
c.$130,000
d.$310,000

Explicación

Dwelling coverage is written on the cost to rebuild the structure, which is the contractor's $310,000 figure, because the $130,000 lot is not exposed to fire. Insuring to the $420,000 purchase price buys coverage the owner can never collect, since indemnity limits recovery to the actual loss. The $290,000 figure is the price less the lot, which is a real estate calculation rather than a rebuilding cost and understates what construction would take.
