Is Home Insurance Required?

The state of South Carolina does have a law requiring home insurance. Most mortgage lenders will require you to purchase and carry home insurance, however. The limits of home insurance you need depends on your location and specific insurance needs. If your lifestyle means you are more likely to be sued, you may need higher personal liability limits. Homeowners with expensive items such as jewelry, art and furs may need additional policy floaters.
