Last year, Thea and Rory Brown bought a home with a dwelling replacement value of $280,000 and insured it (via an HO-5 policy) for $238,000. The policy reimburses for actual cash value and has a $500 deductible, standard limits for coverage C items, and no scheduled property. Recently, burglars broke into the house and stole a 3-year-old television set with a current replacement value of $1,500 and an estimated useful life of 10 years. They also took jewelry valued at $2,000 and silver flatware valued at $2,700.
