Insurance

In this chapter, you’ll find information on different types of insurance, including homeowners, auto, medical, dental, life and title insurance, as well as practical tips on reading policies and shopping for coverage. As you organize your relocation to the Dallas-Fort Worth region, it’s also a good idea to review your family’s insurance needs. For your home, you’re probably planning to purchase new home furnishings, appliances and other equipment that should be noted in your updated home inventory. If you’ll be commuting to and from the office each day, you’ll need to know how many miles you’ll be driving. Keep copies handy of previous auto, home and health policies for easy reference when completing new insurance applications – it will save you time and aggravation.
