A deductible is the amount of money you are responsible for paying out of pocket before an insurance policy begins to cover the cost of damages or losses. For example, if your roof insurance policy has a $1,000 deductible and your roof is damaged in a storm, you will need to pay the first $1,000 of the repair costs before your insurance policy will cover any additional costs. The amount of your deductible is typically set when you purchase your insurance policy, and it can vary depending on the specifics of your policy and the insurance company you are working with. A higher deductible might lower your insurance premium, but it can also mean that you will have to pay more out of pocket in the event of a filing claim.
