I Let My Homeowner's Insurance Lapse. What Happens Next?
A homeowner’s insurance lapse can happen even to the best policyholders. An oversight or failed automatic payments can cause a lapse in your coverage due to nonpayment. Though your coverage should be reinstated once you pay your past-due insurance bill, it isn’t always that simple.
If your homeowner’s insurance policy lapses even for just a day or two, any damages that may occur to your home during that time, due to a fire, storm, or burglary/vandalism could leave you without coverage to pay for the damage.
