I am about to purchase house insurance for my home. I have heard that insurance companies can be very sneaky and many make you think you are covered, but in actuality you aren't. Does anyone here have any advice for what I need to look in order to avoid insurance scams? So far I have heard when buying an insurance policy I need to be aware of the kind of policy I'm buying. Apparently there are several different types of home policies available, which I never knew. So if anyone can offer any personal experience or feedback on this topic, I'd be very thankful.

I'm looking for home owners insurance so this post is relevant for me as well. I am interested on any insight anyone can provide. Hopefully bumping this post will get us a reply.
