- Other structures (B): It covers detached features such as a garage, shed, fence, or similar buildings that sit apart from the main house.
- Coverage C, personal property: This covers furniture, clothing, and everyday belongings inside the home, with special limits that may apply to higher-value categories.
- Coverage D, loss of use: It can help pay additional living expenses when a covered claim makes the home temporarily unlivable during repairs.
- Coverage E, personal liability: When you are found legally liable for bodily injury or property damage to others from a covered event, it applies.

What shapes home insurance premiums in McKinney
McKinney homeowners are priced on several connected factors that underwriters review when they build a quote. Expect rebuild cost, the roof’s age and type, and storm and wildfire exposure to drive most of the price. The deductible you pick and your claims record can also shift the final premium as much as choosing one carrier over another.
Replacement cost is what it would take to rebuild the home with comparable materials at today’s labor and supply prices. Because the carrier’s top payout climbs with the rebuild estimate, bigger estimates for McKinney homes tend to push up premiums.
Construction type and roof details round out the list: insurers ask whether walls are frame or masonry, what covers the roof, and how solidly the home is built, since these factors affect how it handles wind, hail, and fire events common across Texas.
Homes in McKinney with close rebuild estimates may still get different quotes due to location risk: scores for storms, hail, wildfire, and crime that change by ZIP code and neighborhood.
Fire protection looks at how far the home sits from hydrants and stations together with local protection class, and stronger protection profiles often support lower premiums.
Claims history is a heavy factor: in McKinney, claims in the last few years can raise the premium for renewals and new business alike.
Some carriers look at a credit-based insurance score where permitted; the stronger the score, the lower the premium tends to be.
