Gold Value Soars: Is Your Jewelry Insured to Value?

<< View all Industry News Articles


Will Meacham, a myStarke agent, recently wrote a blog post about rising gold prices and how this affects you.   If you think you have plenty of coverage for your jewelry under a homeowners' endorsement, think again.

Here are some of the tips that Will shared in light of rising gold prices:

1) Get your jewelry appraised.
2) Document, document, document. Unless you have appraisal paperwork and pictures, you’re going to have a hard time convincing the insurance company that the thief stole half a million dollars worth of jewelry, even if your limit is higher.
3) Raise your limits.
