The Difference Between Replacement Cost Value and Actual Cash Value
Most homeowners have Replacement Cost Value (RCV) insurance coverage for wind and hail damage on their homes. However, more and more insurance companies are transitioning their policies to Actual Cash Value (ACV) coverage.
If you file a claim, and you have ACV coverage, you're going to be paying more to repair or replace your damaged property. This video explains the difference between these two types of policies. You'll be glad to know the meaning of actual cash value and replacement cost value before you file a claim.
