Why do I need home insurance?

A home is often the biggest investment you’ll ever make. That makes it all the more important to protect your home against unforeseen risks. Whether it’s a fire, a storm, or water damage—even a single incident can result in five- or six-figure costs. DEVK Homeowners Insurance provides reliable protection and ensures that your home is quickly restored to a livable condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is covered by home contents insurance?
The policy covers all your personal household belongings—that is, everything in your home that can be moved: furniture, clothing, appliances, valuables, etc. DEVK protects you against damage caused by fire, burglary, water damage from pipes, storms, hail, vandalism following a break-in, and—optionally—natural hazards.
2. W Does the coverage extend beyond the home?
Yes. This so-called "out-of-home coverage" protects your household belongings—for example, in a vacation rental, while you're moving, or in the city where you attend college—up to 40% of the insured amount for a maximum of 12 months.
3. What is DEVK Glass Insurance?
Glass insurance covers damage caused by breakage to building glass and glass furnishings—such as windows, glass doors, shower enclosures, ceramic cooktops, mirrors, etc. The Premium Coverage plan also covers: aquariums, artistically designed glass surfaces, solar panels, emergency glazing, and consequential damages.
4. How are my valuables insured?
Valuables (e.g., cash, jewelry, documents) are covered up to €50,000, depending on the plan. Bank safety deposit boxes, household belongings in nursing homes, or second homes can also be included.
5. How much does home contents insurance cost?
For as little as a few euros a month, you can protect yourself against major damage. Premiums depend on: living space & location, plan (Basic, Comfort, or Premium), desired add-on coverage, and additional discounts are available when you have multiple DEVK policies!
