    Rebuild costs are NOT the same as a property's market value. In fact, market value is often higher than the rebuild costs because the market value of your property includes the land on which it sits and land accounts for roughly one-third of the market value. Rebuild costs do not include the value of the land because often when a building is destroyed the land is unaffected and so can be rebuilt upon.
    You will pick up maximum wrong numbers when on roaming.

    Always go for "Reinstatement / rebuild cost" option.
