Furniture Insurance: Necessity or Luxury?
Types of Insurance
- Coverage: 10-20 SAR/kg
- 3-bedroom apartment (2 tons) = 20,000-40,000 SAR compensation
- **Problem**: Doesn't cover actual value!
**2. Comprehensive Insurance (Paid):**
- Cost: 2-5% of furniture value
- Covers: Full value
- Includes: Breakage, loss, theft, fire
**3. Valuable Items Insurance (Special):**
- For antiques and collectibles
- Official appraisal required
- Cost: 5-8%
- Full compensation
How to Calculate Required Insurance
- Regular furniture: Current market value (not purchase price)
- Valuable items: Official appraisal
**Example:**
- Bedroom (5 years): Bought for 20,000, now worth 10,000
- Sofa (3 years): Bought for 15,000, now worth 9,000
- Apartment total: 80,000 SAR
**Step 2: Choose Insurance Type**
- Basic insurance: Free (max compensation 20,000)
- Comprehensive (3%): 2,400 SAR (compensation 80,000)
**Smart Decision:**
If your furniture > 30,000 SAR → Comprehensive insurance necessary!
