Insuring a Historic Home RCV: original construction replication; special finishes and materials; ordinance, law and code upgrades; architect, engineer, and other specialist fees; time issues; licensing and permit costs; foundation costs; lead paint removal costs. Most homeowners policies offer a replacement cost method, which means if your home is damaged or destroyed, the insurance company will pay to restore it to its previous state prior to the loss. For pre-1945 homes, many insurance companies want to place a “functional replacement cost” (FRC) method on the policy. This means they will replace your home using today’s methods, affecting the historic integrity—and value—of your home.
Guaranteed or Unlimited Replacement Cost
required to maintain their integrity. They will require a four -point inspection that focuses on the roof, HVAC system, wiring, and plumbing to ensure these items are in good working condition—with update years and condition playing a major role in which companies are willing to write insurance on a particular historic home. Finally, ultra-preferred companies provide expanded coverage on items that standard companies limit. Coverages like water back-up and mold are excluded or severely limited in a standard policy. Ultra-preferred companies include expanded coverage for these problematic losses.
Agency Partner When building an insurance policy to protect your historic home and assets, you should work with an agency that specializes in insuring historic homes. Simply shopping for the cheapest quote could cost you tens to hundreds of thousands in out-of-pocket expenses and many headaches post-claim. Make sure your homeowners insurance policy is written properly and provides the coverages you need to bring you back to a pre-loss state, and to help preserve your asset.
Owning a historic home can be a great source of joy and pride, but insuring one is not as simple as just getting a quote; the process needs to be taken as seriously as any other investment strategy. So, if you’re looking to purchase—or already own—a historic home, there are several important areas you should educate yourself on to ensure your home and assets are properly protected in the event of a property loss.
While all insurance policies have a claim settlement method, ultra-preferred companies will go to great lengths and expense to make sure a home is restored to its pre-loss condition—ensuring the same materials, same workmanship, and same design—regardless of the limit on the policy. They also provide unlimited coverage for additional costs resulting from changes in updated building codes or ordinances.

Historic Preservation List
Historic homes are classified into two categories—those built pre-1945 and those built pre-1900. Because of the unique finishes, features, and architecture from these periods, replacing or restoring these homes after a property loss can cost a considerable amount more than using today’s methods and materials. In general, it’s said that replacement cost should be 25% more for homes built between 1900 and 1945 and nearly 50% more for homes built pre-1900 when compared to homes built today.

O
nce at the destination, out-of-pocket expenses for business days are fully deductible. Out of-pocket expenses include lodging, hotel tips, seminar and convention fees and cab fare. Your meals (subject to the 50 percent disallowance rule) during business days are also deductible, even if they are “personal,� i.e., not connected with business. No deduction is allowed for meals or lodging expenses deemed lavish, extravagant or unreasonable. Expenses for personal days are nondeductible, except in the “Saturday night stayover� situation explained below. Maximizing the Tax Benefits of a Saturday Night Stay An effective strategy for maximizing deductions of the personal portion of a trip is with a Saturday night stay. This occurs when a taxpayer reduces the overall cost of his/her trip by extending a stay at the travel location in order to take advantage of lower return airfare rates. It must be shown that staying
the extra day or two costs less than returning home immediately after the business meeting is over. The IRS has ruled (Private Letter Ruling 9237014, dated June 10, 1992) that under a “common sense test,� a hardheaded businessperson would do the same and, thus, allows the deduction of the additional meals (subject to the 50 percent disallowance rule) and lodging expenses for the extra day(s) as ordinary business expenses. Naturally, this is applicable only if a dominant business purpose for the trip exists. It is prudent to document that airfare savings exceeded the out of- pocket costs of staying the extra day(s) and to maintain the documentation.
