Insuring your property- Using Actual Cash value vs Assessed
Hey guys! Curious what you think on this one.. I have recently obtained a couple houses at a $180k for both purchase price($90k each.) Insuring both of these properties at their assessed value (375k, 285k aprox) would run me 7200 a year. I could also insure them at 'Actual Cash' value and get them insured for $175k each for only 4500 a year. I am into them well, so even at ACV If both would be destroyed, I would still be up on them- but what do you guys think? $2700 is a lot of additional money for insurance!
Thank you
Dan
