How to Choose the Right Master Insurance Policy for Your Condo Association

Selecting the right master insurance policy is one of the most important responsibilities for any condo association. With the right coverage, your association can financially protect its property and residents from unexpected losses. At Savin Jones Insurance Agency, we understand the unique challenges faced by condo associations and can help you navigate your insurance options with confidence.

Understanding Master Insurance Policies

A master insurance policy is designed to cover the common areas and shared structures of your condominium complex, such as roofs, hallways, elevators and exterior walls. This policy is separate from the individual unit owners’ insurance, which typically covers the interior of units, as well as residents’ belongings and personal liabilities.

Key Coverage Options to Consider

When evaluating condo association insurance, you should understand that while you may be able to acquire a master policy with multiple types of coverage, additional and separate policies may also be needed to address all coverage needs. Regardless of how you retain sufficient insurance, the following types of coverage are likely needed:

• Building property coverage can financially protect the physical structure of buildings and common areas.
• General liability coverage can shield associations against losses arising from third-party bodily injuries or property damage occurring in shared spaces.
• Directors and officers liability insurance can financially safeguard board members against claims related to their decisions.
• Fidelity and crime coverage may assist with losses arising from theft or fraud involving association funds.
• Equipment breakdown coverage can recoup costs for repairing mechanical systems like elevators or boilers.
• Workers’ compensation insurance can help manage losses and expenses if an association’s employees are injured on the job.
• Commercial auto insurance may be necessary if an association owns maintenance vans or other vehicles.
