Factors of Home Insurance Rates in Alberta<\/strong>
\nThe location, size, and value of your home, and how much it would cost to replace it, are some of the main considerations insurance companies use when calculating your premium in Alberta. However, they also consider the materials your home is made of, heating, electric, and plumbing systems, security features, and the amount of coverage you are interested in purchasing. Aspects of your community, such as how close your home is to the nearest fire hydrant and fire station, and the crime statistics for your neighborhood, can also influence your average cost.<\/p>\n<\/div>
