Americans pay an average rate of $2,305 a year for home insurance for a $300,000 policy with $300,000 liability and a $1,000 deductible. But that number can be higher or lower depending on where you live and several other factors, including the number and the types of insurance claims you file.

Homeowners file claims for everything from water damage and weather-related property damage to theft, fire and lightning damage and personal liability.

Will my homeowners insurance go up if I file a claim?

Yes, homeowners insurance rates increase after you file a claim typically. The increase depends on the claim’s type and size and how many claims you’ve filed in the past few years. 

Insurance claim history can increase your rate in several ways.

If you have a history of filing claims at previous homes or places you lived, a home insurance company may increase your rate. In that case, the insurance company views you as riskier and thinks you’re more apt to file an insurance claim.

Key Takeaways

  • Home insurance claims increases your insurance rates, and the increase depends on the claim’s type and size and number of claims filed in the past years.
  • Raise your deductible to reduce your home insurance premium especially after filing a claim.
  • Filing a single claim in the span of five years can lead to potential premium increases. However, filing two claims in a row may result in higher rate increase.
  • If the claim’s potential cost is less than your deductible, it is better to avoid filling a claim and pay out of pocket.

How do you avoid that? Don’t file claims when you can.

“Because all claims get reported to the CLUE database — the Comprehensive Loss and Underwriting Exchange — the safest thing for a consumer is not to file small claims and pay for them out of pocket, [just] to be sure it won’t affect you,” says Amy Bach, executive director of United Policyholders, a consumer advocacy group.

Bach says part of the challenge is that the process home insurance companies use to determine how claims affect rates isn’t transparent. Since each insurer has its own underwriting guidelines and rating rules, it’s almost impossible for consumers to get a straight answer about how claims will be factored into their rate, Bach says.

However, the worse your risk profile looks and the more claims on your record, the less attractive you are to an insurer. Through CLUE, insurers can access information on the frequency and type of claims you file — two variables that can increase your rates.

Does your home insurance go up after a claim that is not your fault?

When it comes to home insurance, the impact on your premium after a claim that is not your fault can vary depending on several factors. Generally, filing a claim that is not your fault may not lead to an immediate increase in your home insurance premium. However, there are some considerations to keep in mind:

  1. Claims History: Insurance companies typically assess your claims history. While a single not-at-fault claim may not result in a premium increase, multiple claims over a short period might lead to higher premiums.
  2. Frequency of Claims: If you frequently file claims, even if they are not your fault, insurers may view you as a higher risk, potentially leading to an increase in premiums.
  3. Insurance Company Policies: Each insurance company has its own policies and criteria for determining premium rates. Some insurers may be more lenient with not-at-fault claims, while others may have stricter guidelines.
  4. Type of Claim: The nature and severity of the claim can also play a role. For example, a minor not-at-fault claim, such as a tree falling on your property, may have a different impact compared to a more significant claim, like water damage caused by a neighbor’s negligence.
  5. Location: The location of your home can influence insurance rates. If you live in an area prone to certain types of claims, it might impact your premium.

Do insurers view home insurance claims differently?

Yes, insurers have their own underwriting processes, so some insurers increase your rates higher than others if you file an insurance claim.

“Generally, whatever your insurer’s policy is and whatever their internal guidelines are will dictate what the impact of a claim will be,” Bach says.

When to file a home insurance claim — and when not

One important rule of thumb for filing a claim is to look at the cost compared to your deductible. If the claim’s potential cost is less than your deductible, it’s better to pay out of pocket. That’s especially true if this isn’t your first insurance claim.

However, one exception is liability claims. It’s usually a good idea to file liability claims if you’re concerned that you’ll get sued.

Insight:

If the claim is below your deductible, you definitely do not want to file it — there’s nothing to be gained. Unless someone gets injured and there’s a possibility, they may sue you. In that case, you need to let your insurer know. -Amy Bach, executive director of United Policyholders, a consumer advocacy group.

If you’re concerned about maintaining an affordable homeowners insurance rate, especially after filing a claim, consider carrying a higher deductible to reduce your premium. Increasing your deductible can save you hundreds of dollars annually.

Making improvements to your home also can help. But Bach stresses that it’s even more critical to be a knowledgeable consumer.

“We always encourage people to ask the question, ‘what are your rules, so that I know and can make informed decisions,’” Bach says.

What else increases home insurance rates?

Beyond claims, homeowners insurance premiums can increase for several reasons, such as:

  • More homeowners insurance claims in your area
  • Extreme weather
  • A crumbling roof
  • A pool, hot tub or outdoor spa
  • Pets
  • Age and construction of home
  • Credit history

More claims in your area

When you renew your insurance policy, you may receive a higher rate if an insurance company views your area as a higher risk. This can be due to more burglaries or thefts in the area. You also might encounter higher home insurance premiums if your area is more susceptible to extreme weather, such as hurricanes and tornadoes.

Home upkeep issues

If your home needs repairs, this can increase your homeowners insurance premiums, too. An old roof or a bad foundation are potential safety hazards. Those issues make it more likely you’ll claim a loss. Hence, the higher rates.

Features in your home

Certain features of your home can also increase your insurance rate. Having a pool, hot tub or outdoor spa can increase your homeowners insurance premiums. Those items create greater liability and a risk of injury or death. From 2005-2014, there were more than 3,500 unintentional drownings in the U.S. It’s part of the reason the Insurance Information Institute recommends homeowners increase their liability coverage from $300,000 to $500,000.

Pets

The type of pet you own additionally affects your rate. Companies may have an exclusion list for certain breeds of dogs and exotic pets. Depending on the breed, certain companies may not insure you. Others may view you as more of a risk and lead to higher rates.

Construction of home

The age and construction of your home are two other factors that affect your rate. The average construction costs in your area and whether your home is new affect its rebuilding costs. New construction homes get a 40% homeowners insurance discount on average. Older homes may be more expensive to rebuild because the materials used to reconstruct them can be more costly and not as readily available as newer construction materials.

Poor credit

Similar to other forms of insurance and consumer loans, poor credit history can lead to higher rates. Insurer use what’s known as an insurance score based on your credit history to determine your risk level. A history of late payments or high outstanding debt may indicate to an insurance company you’re risky to insure. To offset this risk, a homeowners insurance company may charge you a higher rate.

But your claims history could be even more important than all these factors in what you pay. Be careful not to file home insurance claims unless it’s absolutely necessary. Otherwise, you’ll pay more for your home insurance policy.

Does a roof claim raise insurance premiums? 

Yes, just like any other insurance claim, a roof-related claim may mean higher homeowners insurance rates. 

Home insurance companies place great importance on roofs. They want to ensure your roof is in good order. Home insurance companies occasionally send appraisers to review their insured properties to make sure they’re in good working order. 

They check the home from the street to see if there are any issues that may happen, such as a giant overhanging tree or cracked and bent shingles. 

Your home insurance company may notify you if it finds an issue that it wants addressed. For instance, the insurance company may request that you replace a roof if it’s showing wear.

Home insurance companies typically believe that a roof’s life is about 20 to 25 years. If your roof is about that age, your insurer may request that you fix the roof or it will stop coverage. 

How long does a claim affect your home insurance? 

Home insurance companies usually keep your claims on your record for between five and seven years. 

Having claims on your record means higher home insurance rates. It also may mean higher home insurance premiums if you shop around for a new insurance policy. 

Home insurance companies will look back at least five years of your claims history through CLUE. The CLUE report also includes information about claims of your property before you bought your home. Insurance companies usually limit that lookback to five years. 

How many insurance claims are too many? 

There is no limit to the number of insurance claims you can file with your insurer. But most companies will stop providing insurance coverage to you after three claims in a three-year period, no matter what type of claim you file. 

Does hail damage claim raise home insurance rates? 

It depends. Since hail damage to your home is not your fault, then your insurance company will not increase your rates. But if you have filed a claim in the past three years and this new hail damage is your second claim, then your rates may go up. 

Insurance.com in 2020 commissioned Quadrant Information Systems to field home insurance rates from major insurers in each state for nearly all ZIP codes in the country for 10 coverage levels based on various dwelling and deductible limits. The homeowner profile is a 35-year-old married applicant with an excellent insurance score; new business HO3 insurance policy for house built in 2000 with frame construction and composition roof. Other Structures: 10%. Loss of Use defaulted: 10%. Personal Property defaulted: 50%. Guest Medical limit: $5,000. Personal property: 50% of dwelling coverage for actual cash value.

Frequently asked questions

Is it worth filing a claim with your homeowners insurance company?

Whether or not you file a claim depends on the amount of damage your home has experienced. If the damage is minor, it’s best to pay for the repairs yourself, as a claim could increase the cost of your coverage and be more costly in the long run. But if the damage is significant, it is usually worth it to file a homeowners insurance claim.

Can insurance companies raise your rates after you file a claim?

Yes. Insurance companies can raise your rates after you file a claim. However, just because insurance companies can, doesn’t mean they always will. Insurance companies will take multiple factors into account, such as which driver was at fault. 

It is best practice to not file too many claims, as this can lead to a very high premium.

Why does your homeowners insurance premium increase after filing a claim?

Insurance companies may increase your premium after you file a claim because a claim can indicate to the insurer that you are a riskier driver. By increasing your premium, the insurance company accounts for increased risk that comes with your coverage — and the higher likelihood that the insurer will have to pay out for a claim.
