Before we closed down our offices, I had umbrella coverage above my standard coverage that did cover riots and such. It was not that much to add it so I always did. As for my home owners, I honestly don't know if it is covered. Embarrassing to admit. I should probably check on that. Until this year, I am one of those that would laugh at the idea of civil unrest in the suburbs.TomV wrote: Fri Oct 30, 2020 4:15 pmI think this is a better question for your insurance agent.

His argument should/response should be since the local government is not calling it riots or domestic terrorism, it would have to be a simple case of vandelism. Peaceful protestors could not be terrorists.
WOW. I almost lost me breakfast typing that last line..
Is my house not covered?
Philip, no, your home would most likely not be covered.
The answer you get could easily differ from one insurance company to another.
