Condominium unit owners have specialized insurance needs because they own their individual unit but not the entire building. Here’s what most condo insurance policies cover:
- Some types of weather damage, including damage caused by hail, wind, or lightning
- Losses caused by other events, like fire, theft, or vandalism
- Accidental discharge of water from within a plumbing system
- Artificial generation of electrical current
Here are a few events that can cause losses unlikely to be covered by condo insurance:
- Flood, earthquakes, mudslides, contamination, or rodent infestation
- Business or professional pursuits
- Ownership, maintenance, or operation of aircraft, motor vehicles, or some watercraft
Common areas of a condominium, like walls, roof, floors, and elevators, aren’t likely to be covered by a condo unit policy, but those areas should be covered by the condo building “master” policy. Contact Rising Star Insurance Group to build a policy that’s right for you.
