AGM Insurance Group understands the home insurance needs of our customers. We’ll work with you to estimate the replacement cost for your home and to adjust your policy limits from time to time as needed.
It is critical that you provide us with accurate, updated information about your home and contents. If your dwelling limit accurately reflects your home’s true replacement cost, some companies will pay more than the limit if a covered loss is greater than the limit on your policy.
Once a review of your home and possessions indicates you are properly insured, it’s a good idea to reexamine your coverages and limits from time to time, especially whenever you make additions or improvements.

How to keep your home
from invasions? One way to prevent forcible entry is by using a lock with a 1-inch-long deadbolt and a reinforced metal box strike.

Brown can convey two sides. The lighter shades emphasize warmth, stability, and reliability. The darker shades signal privacy and isolation.

Wood continues to offer both elegance and the high-end look most other materials mimic. Although remains relatively expensive, they are less likely to dent and scratches are easily repairable. Wood doors can be easily kicked in by home invaders therefore not recommended for homes in high crime areas.
Fiber Glass is a practical choice and take on the look of wood. Although they can crack under severe impact, they can be painted or stained and required little maintenance.
Steel is a popular choice and is energy efficient unless glass panels are added. Though inexpensive and require little maintenance, don't resist weather as much as fiber glass and wood doors do. Scratches left unpainted can become rusted.
