Ihry Insurance FAQs

Have an insurance-related question? We have the answer. Check out these FAQs and give us a call today for more information!

  • What types of insurance are there?

    You can buy insurance for your home, personal property in your apartment, cars, recreational vehicles, campers, and more! We can insure most of the property that you may buy or own whether it has its own policy or a rider on a current policy. We’d be happy to discuss this further if you have any questions or need a quote.

  • What is umbrella insurance?

    Umbrella insurance is designed to give one added liability protection above and beyond the limits on homeowners, auto, and watercraft personal insurance policies. With an umbrella policy, depending on the insurance company, one can add an additional 1-5 million in liability protection. This protection is designed to “kick-in” when the liability on the other current policies has been executed.

  • How do I know which policy is best for me?

    Multi-peril crop insurance is a very complex risk mitigation tool. It is priced the same, regardless of whom you purchase it from. Buy it from us, as we are farmers ourselves. Our agents and support teams are ready, willing, and able to help your farm make more profit, take less risk and live a better quality of life.

  • What services does Ihry Insurance offer?

    Ihry Insurance is proud to offer personal, business, and agricultural insurance options. These agricultural insurance options include crop and farm insurance. If you aren’t sure if we offer the service you are looking for, give us a call.

  • What sets Ihry Insurance apart from the competition?

    What sets our insurance services apart from the rest is that we provide 24/7 services. We offer any or all of the following: emergency phone numbers, Internet account access, and email and call services.

We also provide thorough Account Reviews at least annually, or when requested. To find out how much our services would cost you, get ahold of our professionals today.

  • Who do I contact to make a claim?

    We’d love it if you call one of our offices. We can help you file a claim with the insurance company and walk you through the steps of what to expect at the time of a loss. This is part of the service we provide for our customers.

Car Insurance FAQ

  • Will my rate be affected if I file a minor car accident that wasn’t my fault?

    It can, depending on the company. Some companies give claim-free discounts, so even if it’s not your fault, a not-at-fault accident can affect your rates. Each company is different, which makes insuring your vehicles through an independent insurance agency better. If one company doesn’t work out, we may have another company that might not increase your rates due to a not-at-fault accident.

Life Insurance FAQs

  • Why is life insurance important?

    A life insurance policy is one of the most important policies to buy. In the event of a death, this is what will help provide financial security to your family and allow them to live comfortably if you should die. It’s also important if you have any outstanding debt that you may not want to leave to your family or heirs. People often also purchase life insurance to fund college education if a death occurs early to a parent or loved one. We are doing some very exciting things with businesses and farmers also to help with estate issues.

Homeowners Insurance FAQs

  • If my home is flooded, won’t federal disaster assistance pay for my damages?

    Not necessarily. Federal disaster assistance typically comes in the form of a low-interest loan to help cover flood damage, not compensation for your losses. Even then, those loans are only available if the President formally declares a disaster and must be repaid along with any existing mortgage.

  • Does my homeowner's policy cover flooding?

    Flood damage is typically not a part of a homeowners insurance policy.

  • Can you insure my winter home in Arizona?

    Yes, we can insure most homes in Arizona, whether it’s a frame structure or manufactured home.

  • Is jewelry and other personal items fully covered under my homeowners policy?

    Jewelry is typically covered under the homeowners or renters insurance policy, however, there may be limitations to the coverage depending on what type of claim you have. It’s best to check out your current policy and see what your coverages are. If you need additional coverage, we suggest you get an appraisal and schedule your better jewelry as a rider on your home or renters insurance. You are giving it broader coverage and many times without a deductible.

  • What is covered by my homeowners insurance policy?

    A typical homeowners policy is going to insure your home, other structures, personal property, loss of use, personal liability, and premises medical payments.

Business Insurance FAQs

  • What should I do to keep my business insurance expenditures low?

    We work very closely with our companies and our clients to always help reduce your exposure and losses. Many of our companies have loss control departments that will make annual visits to our client's place of business to help them with loss control. Maintaining a higher deductible will also reduce your costs.

  • Do I need a small business insurance plan?

    We always recommend having a business insurance plan regardless of your type of operation. In some cases, it is mandatory or required by the state you are domiciled in.

  • Do I need workers compensation business insurance?

    Depending on the state you live in and the type of operation you have, you may or may not need it. Typically, if you have employees, you should definitely provide workers' compensation insurance.

Agricultural Insurance FAQs

  • What is Farm Rescue?

    Farm Rescue provides planting and harvesting assistance to farm families in North Dakota, South Dakota, western Minnesota, and eastern Montana that have experienced a major illness, injury, or natural disaster. Farm Rescue doesn’t distribute funds, we simply get the work done for farm families experiencing a major illness, injury, or natural disaster.


    Ihry Insurance is a proud sponsor of the Farm Rescue program. For more information, visit farmrescue.org.

  • How do I divide up my different farms?

    Deciding on the correct division or combination of your farms or farming entities can involve several factors, such as location, share, land differences, landlords, yields, etc. It is always best to consult with your agent to see which factors or combinations will benefit you the most.

  • What is covered under my crop insurance?

    Although crop insurance policies differ, most insure against many of the same perils including but not limited to drought, excess moisture, wind, and hail. Revenue protection policies cover the combination of yield loss and price movement, while yield protection policies cover yield loss at a predetermined price. Ihry Insurance agents will use many tools to help decide which policy is right for each producer.

  • Do you insure livestock?

    Yes! We can insure all types of livestock with various perils to insure against.

  • Does crop insurance cover crops in the event of natural disasters?

    Yes, it does! Producers who purchased crop insurance are covered for all natural causes of loss listed in their policies. For more details, speak to the knowledgeable professionals at Ihry Insurance.
