  5. Dwelling Replacement Cost Estimation Guide Proper insurance to value is one of the most important considerations in insuring property. The insured needs to be properly protected. In addition, rates are based on the assumption that each exposure will be properly insured to replacement cost. If not, the premium developed will be inadequate and create the need for rate levels which may adversely affect our competitive position. To properly protect our policyholders and our competitive position, always encourage the policyholders to carry an amount of coverage adequate to pay for the complete rebuilding of the home and to replace the personal property. The Dwelling Replacement Cost Estimation Guide is designed to determine the minimum replacement cost of a dwelling. Procedure Manual page 2037

  6. Dwelling Replacement Cost Estimation Guide Step 1 - Select the type of dwelling that most nearly fits the description. Procedure Manual page 2038

Bi-level residences must include the total lower level area including the basement garage. Procedure Manual page 2039

  16. Dwelling Replacement Cost Estimation Guide Calculation example: TOTAL square foot area Dwelling at (40’ X 25’) = 1,000 s.f. X 2 levels = 2,000 s.f.

Procedure Manual page 2041
