What do I need to know about Condo Insurance?
Condo Contents Insurance is really important and is often overlooked by many condo homeowners, especially first time home buyers. Your condo or townhouse association might already has a "master policy" to protect the building itself and structure.
So, why do you need condo contents insurance? You may need additional insurance to cover your personal items and personal belongings, additionals/alterations inside your unit, and personal liability coverage. To begin, there are two main types of condominium insurance packages:
Personal condo contents insurance policy: This important policy can provide coverage for your personal possessions, structural alterations and improvements (such as upgraded cabinetry, flooring, etc) to the interior of your condo/townhouse. Also included is additional living expenses if you are displaced due to fire, theft or other disaster covered in your policy. You also may also get personal liability protection.
When you rent your condo out to others, it is important to make sure your insurance company knows this so that they can provide you with the correct type of insurance policy. This is sometimes known as a condo rented to others or condo landlord insurance policy. This type of insurance policy will usually provide you with important coverage when you rent out your condo to others. Some of these extra coverages include loss of rents coverage and vandalism coverage in the event of a covered loss. This type of policy usually covers for your condo and personal belongings in your rented condo, but it will not provide coverage for your renters pesonal belongings or tenants. So, it is important to make sure that your tenants get a renters insurance policy to cover their own personal belongings and items.
A "master policy" homeowners assoaciation commercial insurance provided by the condo homeowners association: This covers the common areas you share with others in your building such as the building/structure, parking garage areas, the roof, basement, elevator, and walkways, etc.
To insure your condo or townhouse unit, it is important to know what parts of your condo or townhouse are covered by the association insurance policy and what are not. If you aren't sure, check with the homeowners association board, read the bylaws, or CC&R's. It is very critical to protect the interior of your condo if the master policy at your condo/townhouse association does not provide coverage. Your condo or townhouse is a large investment and you want to make sure to protect your interest in your home. If you have any questions, please call our office at 619-889-0889 to speak with a local San Diego insurance agent.
What are some ways to save or get discounts on my Condo Insurance?
There are many ways to save on your condo insurance. You can save money and lower your premium on your condo insurance by increasing your deductible.
Another way to save on your insurance premium is by having your car insurance with the same insurance company as your home or condo insurance. By having your car insurance and home insurance with the same insurance company, you may be elligible for a multi-line discount.
Having an active central burglar or fire alarm might give you additional discounts on your home or condo insurance.
If you have a newly built condo or home, you may receive a discount on your insurance depending on when it was built.
It's always best to check with your California insurance agent to see what discounts are available.
