Condominium Insurance
Condo Insurance is very different from Renters Insurance. There's more you need to protect than just your possessions.
Most condominium associations insure the building's structure and common areas, but each unit's interior construction is the responsibility of the homeowner. If your condo is destroyed, it may be up to you to replace drywall, flooring, cabinets, lighting fixtures and so on.
Also bear in mind that if you are found liable for damage to a common area – say your adorable new puppy rips up the Berber carpet in the lobby – you may be responsible for repairs.
To make sure you have the right policy coverage, be prepared to tell agent Rex Young what deductible amount your association's policy has.
Who's Responsible for What? Typically your Condo Association is only responsible for the structure You are typically responsible for all interior fixtures and construction
