Condos, Houses, Apartments..insurance is all the same, right? No, it’s not that simple. When someone buys a condominium and needs to insure it, they probably don’t realize that it differs from buying insurance for an apartment or even a house. If someone lives in an apartment or rental house, the insurance company is likely to write coverage on a renter’s policy. This provides coverage on items like personal property, loss of use, and includes the liability and medical payments coverage common to a homeowners policy. When you purchase a house, you need a homeowners policy. Insuring a condominium however, includes factors like ownership structures, property to insure, and dealing with condo associations and by-laws- this all requires a different type of coverage. Enter the condominium unit-owners policy. In this episode, we unpack the details on why insuring condominiums is different than insuring the everyday renter or homeowner and some of the major differences you need to be aware of. .

Getting Commercial Property Insurance is easy, right? No, it’s not that simple. Key coverage endorsements that provide additional protections the insured may require should be carefully considered.

Learn how you can get coverages to avoid enormous costs when your building sustains damage. In this episode, we unpack the details on why adding Ordinance and Law endorsements to Commercial Property Policies isn’t just an option, it is a very good idea! Want to take a deeper dive?
