How Property Insurance Works in Condominiums

A standard homeowners insurance policy covers an entire dwelling (and often outbuildings as well). In condominiums, the unit owners pay monthly fees to a HOA, which insures and maintains the condo building’s structure and communal areas. The unit owner must also purchase separate insurance to cover individual unit damage in events like:

  • Fires
  • Hurricanes
  • Burglary and vandalism
  • Water damage
  • Flooding

Because at least two insurance companies are usually involved in condo property coverage, it’s often tricky for a unit owner to negotiate a settlement. Our law firm can help you understand what your insurance policy covers and who should compensate you for damage to your condo unit and personal property.

What to Do When Your Condominium Property Suffers Damage

If your condo unit sustains damage in a policy-covered incident, you should:

  • Document all damage and write down a detailed record of the event
  • Notify your insurance agent of the incident
  • If possible, wait with any repairs until you get the green light from your insurer, apart from emergency work to protect your property from further damage

Why You Need a Proficient Condominium Association Property Damage Lawyer

When you examine your condo insurance policy, you may conclude that recovering a settlement should be easy. However, even if your policy looks clear, many insurance companies use underhanded tactics to deny or minimize claims. An insurer may assert that the damage occurred for reasons your policy doesn’t cover, drag out your claim, or even accuse you of fraud.
