In Tulsa, annual home insurance policies are around $1,400 more than policies nationwide. Higher rates are due to tornadoes, strong wind storms and criminal property damage. Rates in the 71st Street Corridor (74136) are cheaper than rates in Southern Hills (71118) because the homes are newer. Some neighborhoods in Tulsa include homes built in the late 1800s, which also increases premiums.

Though homeowners insurance is not required in Tulsa, mortgage companies and lenders require policies on any home purchased with a loan to help protect their company in the case of loss. Even if insurance isn’t required, it’s worth purchasing a policy to protect your home, one of the largest investments you’ll make.
Before buying a policy, make a list of questions to ask your agent to ensure you are getting coverage that fits your needs and protects your investment. Consider asking for the claims history for your home, the benefits of choosing replacement cost or actual cash value in the event of loss, what additional or extended coverage is available (including policy exclusions), how much liability protection to get and what savings you qualify for.
Homeowners in Tulsa can receive discounts for installing the following:
Additionally, other discount options, such as for your credit score and claims-free history, are available. Be sure to check with your agent about their company discount policies.
Homeowners coverage does not include flooding, earthquakes, backup water or sewage or swimming pool injuries. Flood coverage can be purchased separately through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Due to the location of the Arkansas River within the city, many areas in Tulsa can be prone to flooding.
To avoid liability from flooding or injuries in or around your backyard pool, be sure to add enough liability coverage to your policy.
