Not typically but oddly enough we had a rep in our office just write one of these. I'll have to verify but they got underwriting approval to write it as an HO6/Condo policy with the intention to lease/rent it out.
This is sooo helpful! Thank you SO much! I just got a policy with Foremost (in Michigan! They're agents are so nice). I only recently purchased a co-op so I'm new to HO6, but the agents in Michigan were so nice, that I started doing research on a vacation in Michigan. lol
The condo building I'm moving in has a couple of major maintenance from 2022-2024. Does the property insurance covers these and unit owners just pay the deductibles?
@@ThinkInsurance like the condo has a number of scheduled maintenance, and the reserve funds seem low so I'm wondering if in case they ask for a large amount of special levy, does the home insurance covers any of it?
The condo association has insurance on all the repairs they are making. Most is likely not covered since it’s in need of repair but you’re only responsible for the walls in. Your association fee could go up if they file a claim and the insurance goes up because the association shares the risk/costs. If something they don’t fix breaks and damages your interior then your insurance will kick in and likely cover you. However, they’ll make the association or their insurance pay them back which still hurts you in the end but not as much I hope this answers what you’re asking
My current ins told me they chose not to renew me because I had two claims for water damage. I having difficulty getting someone to insure me. In this case, what should a person do?
There are companies that will insure you. You can always have the agent call the underwriter if you can show proof of the repair to help persuade them. If not, each state usually has a go to company in these situation so you aren’t left un insured
Thank you for this information. I was able to find someone who wanted to insure unless I bundled but it was extremely high. I live in CA do you know of a contact?
Know what you're doing? Then wtf is the agent for?
Awesome 👌
Some states and governing documents do state the association picks up coverage for the units. Read the insurance Section of the governing documents.
Does condo insurance cover cases where you rent out your property to tenants?

I don't believe the information in this video is presented correctly and completely. I would seek input from a qualified insurance agent.
Lol tell them to make a UA-cam video while you're at it
How much to add flood insurance on average?

I don’t understand the question you’re asking
