Underinsurance is the biggest risk factor homeowners face. The average homeowner’s content is underinsured by as much as 35 percent. When a claim is received on home contents that is underinsured in the judgment of the assessor, the insurance company applies the “average” clause, which means that the homeowner is regarded as sharing the liability to the extent of the underinsurance.
