InsuranceAgents.com Warns Condo Renters to Cover Themselves

PRLog (Press Release) - Jul 22, 2009 -
Chicago (InsuranceAgents.com) – When landlords of condo complexes take out master insurance policies, they usually only cover the common areas of the units that are used by all tenants. There are few landlords that cover structure within each of the units, including floor and ceilings. The detail of the coverage is in your condo association information.

Once you fully understand what is covered in your condo complex by the master insurance policy, it is up to you to cover anything additional that is your responsibility. You definitely need to make sure your personal belongings are covered, including your furniture, clothing, electronics and appliances. And depending on how much coverage your condo association offers, you may need to cover structures like your flooring, light fixtures and cabinets. If there is ever a fire in your unit, you would be responsible for the damages that the association doesn’t have already covered.

The importance to understanding your condo’s master insurance policy is great. Once you know where you stand, it is easy for you to step up and take responsibility for everything else. You wont have to worry about whether you are protected or not, because you were responsible enough to take matters into your own hands.
