Condo Townhouse Insurance

Ownership in a stratified dwelling presents a different set of risks for an owner for property and liability. When you are the owner of a unit in a strata you are responsible for your own Personal Property (contents), Additional Living Expenses (when the home is uninhabitable due to a claim) and Personal Liability which is provided on a worldwide basis (including legal costs) if it is the principal residence.

Additional property coverage unique to condo owners includes;

• coverage for the Strata Corporation deductible (in the event you are required to contribute to pay for damage to the building insured by the Strata policy with varying limits available),
• Unit Improvements & Betterments (any upgrades done to the unit after original construction),
• Loss Assessment (for any damages levied against by the Strata Corporation for damages you are liable for)
• Unit Additional Protection (covers any shortfall on the Strata Corporation policy which would create financial loss for your unit).

Many discounts are available such as;

• Claims Free (3 years of insurance claims free),
• Maturity (persons over 50 years old),
• Burglar & Fire Alarm (local and monitored),
• Multi-Line (carrying multiple locations with the same insurer) and
• Credit Check (soft).
