Homes in Jamaica Estates (11432)
Jamaica Estates is known for large detached homes on curving, tree-lined streets north of Hillside Avenue, from 1920s Tudors to newer custom builds. Higher-value homes often fit better with carriers that specialize in them, offering extended or guaranteed replacement cost, higher liability limits and coverage for jewelry, art and collections.
What a Jamaica Estates homeowners policy covers
A standard homeowners policy (HO-3) bundles several coverages into one. We walk you through each limit before you buy.
Dwelling
The structure of your home, including roof, walls, floors and built-in systems, against fire, wind, hail, theft and other covered causes.
Other structures
Detached garages, sheds and fences, usually up to 10% of your dwelling limit.
Personal property
Furniture, clothing, electronics and other belongings, at home or away.
Loss of use
Hotel, rent and extra living costs if your home can’t be lived in after a covered loss.
Personal liability
Legal and medical costs if someone is hurt on your property or you accidentally damage someone else’s property.
Medical payments
Small medical bills for guests injured at your home, regardless of fault.
Coverage to think about in Jamaica Estates
High-value homes
Extended or guaranteed replacement cost so a major loss doesn’t leave you short.
Valuables
Jewelry, watches and art can be scheduled for their appraised value, often with no deductible.
Liability and umbrella
Larger homes and more guests call for higher limits. An umbrella adds $1 million or more on top of home and auto.
Trees and older roofs
Mature trees and slate or tile roofs drive wind and fallen-tree claims.
Broker tip: If you renovated, update your dwelling limit. Many large-home claims fall short because coverage was never raised after a new kitchen or an addition.

Homeowners insurance questions from Jamaica Estates
What is a high-value homeowners policy?
Carriers that focus on larger homes offer broader coverage, such as extended or guaranteed replacement cost, cash settlement options and higher limits for valuables. We compare them with standard carriers for your home.
How much liability coverage should I carry?
Many owners of larger homes carry $500,000 of personal liability and add a $1 million or larger umbrella over their home and auto. We’ll quote a few combinations so you can compare.
Should I schedule my jewelry?
Yes, if it’s worth more than your policy’s jewelry theft limit, which is often only a few thousand dollars. Scheduled items are covered for their appraised value, often for loss as well as theft.
Is Jamaica Estates the same ZIP code as Jamaica?
It shares 11432 with part of Jamaica and Jamaica Hills. We insure all of it.
How much is homeowners insurance in Jamaica Estates?
It depends on the age and construction of the house, rebuild cost, number of families, the age of the roof and systems, claims history, flood and coastal exposure, and the deductible you choose. Because we compare several carriers, we can usually show you more than one price for the same coverage. Call (347) 817-7771 or use our home insurance form for an exact quote.
What’s the difference between an HO-3 and an HO-5 policy?
Both cover your house against all causes of loss except those the policy excludes. An HO-5 also covers your belongings that broadly, usually at replacement cost, so it’s wider coverage and costs more. Not every carrier offers HO-5 on every home.
Does homeowners insurance cover flooding?
No. Flood from surface water is excluded from standard homeowners policies. It’s a separate policy through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) or a private flood carrier, and we can quote it alongside your home.
