If you are owner of the property as part of the trust, and are on the deed and/or loan for the home, you can purchase a homeowner policy in your name that will include coverage on the home, contents and liability. The trust should be added as an additional insured on the policy since it too is on title.If the title of the home is in your parents’ name, then the policy should be written in their name with, again, the trust as additional insured. The policy may have to be written as a rental property and then you would need to get a renters policy for your personal property and liability protection.I recommend that you speak with your agent about the issues. Some insurance companies are less stringent on writing a homeowner policy, if you are a family member and beneficiary of a trust and would be willing to do a homeowner policy.You can also discuss everything with your parents and see if you can be added to the title so you can purchase a homeowner policy.
