There isn’t a right or wrong choice of coverage, all it has to do is fit your needs. DP1 Insurance provides basic protection of your property from a detailed list of perils, DP3 Insurance offers a broader scope of coverage, except for a few perils, also mentioned in your policy.

Both coverages protect your home while you’re renting it or if it’s unoccupied, but only DP1 Insurance keeps it safe when it’s vacant. Keep in mind though, that DP3 Insurance offers a more comprehensive scope, providing a wider safety net for your investment from unexpected circumstances.
DP1 Insurance covers your home’s dwelling, other structures, and personal belongings with the actual cash value method, from nine specific perils. DP3, instead, has open peril protection for the main dwelling and detached structures, with a replacement cost method.
