Second Home Insurance FAQs – Martinsburg, WV

  • Is second home insurance required in West Virginia?

    If you have a mortgage on your second home, your lender may require it. Even if it’s paid off, it’s highly recommended to protect your investment.

  • Can I use my homeowners policy for my second home?

    No. Most homeowners policies only cover your primary residence. A separate second home insurance policy ensures you’re properly protected.

  • Does second home insurance cover rental use?

    Yes — but if you rent your property, you may need an endorsement or a landlord policy for short-term or seasonal rentals.

  • Can I bundle my home and second home insurance in WV?

    Absolutely. Bundling can help you save money and simplify your coverage.

  • Do I need flood insurance for my second home?

    If your property is near a river, stream, or floodplain, we strongly recommend separate flood coverage.
