Home Insurance Rojales

Q: Does my Rojales home insurance cover flood, storm or DANA damage?

The Spanish Consorcio de Compensacion de Seguros covers extraordinary natural events - floods, earthquakes, severe storms and DANA (cut-off low pressure) damage - provided you hold a contract that includes the Consorcio premium component (every standard Generali home policy does). The specific weather risk in Rojales is shaped by DANA flash-flood exposure - the September 2019 floods caused catastrophic damage in Rojales, with the Segura overspilling. Properties below the 2019 flood line need explicit flood cover and the Consorcio process confirmed. We always confirm Consorcio cover is itemised in your quote schedule.

Q: How much should I insure my Rojales home for (continente / rebuild cost)?

The continente sum-insured should match the rebuild cost - not the market value, and not the purchase price. In Rojales, current rebuild costs typically run from EUR 1,200 to EUR 1,900 per built m² for an average villa, higher for new-build and very high spec. We calculate a free capital-asegurado figure with every quote using the Generali surveyor table, so you do not under-insure (which would cause a proportional claim reduction) or over-insure (which costs you needless premium).
