Types of condo insurance coverage available

There are several features and coverage types in a condo insurance plan. These options include:

• Building property coverage: The HOA master plan covers the basic physical structure of the building. Owners of condos cover the inside permanent structures of their properties, such as counters, walls, bathroom fixtures, and built-in appliances.
• Personal property coverage: This covers the condo owner’s property, such as furniture and other valuable items.
• Personal liability coverage: If something happens, and a person is injured on your property, or their belongings are damaged, your liability insurance covers the costs.
• Loss of use coverage: If the condo is unsafe to use due to damage, your insurance can pay for other living arrangements while things are being fixed.
• Loss assessment coverage: If there is tremendous damage to the condos, and the cost of damage is higher than what the master plan covers, loss assessment coverage helps pay to get the shared areas fixed.
