HO3 is the most popular form of homeowners policy written for insuring the homes. HO3 policy covers most of the perils that may damage your dwelling.
HO8 is specially designed to protect the heritage and old dwellings. It offers protection against perils like- theft, riots, volcanic eruption and so forth. Normally, you can receive the actual cash value for your damages, ie. it'll replace the damaged property after deducting the depreciation costs. The ho3 vs ho8 debate would remain, but it's important to understand the different factors that support each of these.
Thanks,

HO-1: Limited coverage policy
This “bare bones” policy covers you against the first 10 disasters. It's no longer available in most states.
HO-2: Basic policy
A basic policy provides protection against all 16 disasters. There is a version of HO-2 designed for mobile homes.
HO-3: The most popular policy
This “special” policy protects your home from all perils except those specifically excluded.

| Well Case, leaving the ho8 vs ho3 debate aside, you normally have a choice with the HO3 policy. You can either opt for actual cash value coverage, which would cost you less than the replacement cost coverage. But HO8 normally offers actual cash value coverage only, i.e. if your ancestral home gets damaged the insurer would deduct the depreciation value of the property from the claim amount and would pay the remaining. |
