A form of insurance that protects your property against loss from theft, liability and most common disasters. Homeowner's insurance is also commonly known as hazard insurance. Mortgage lenders often require a borrower to maintain an amount of homeowners insurance on the property that is equal to the amount of the mortgage loan or the insurable value of the improvements.
