Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between the condo corporation’s insurance and my personal condo insurance?
The condo corporation’s insurance typically covers the building structure, common areas, and original fixtures in your unit. Your personal condo insurance covers your belongings, personal liability, any improvements made to your unit, additional living expenses if you’re displaced, and protection against special assessments from the condo board.
Do I need special coverage for water damage in my condo?
Yes, standard condo policies don’t automatically include coverage for sewer backup or overland water damage. These are typically available as additional endorsements. Given the shared plumbing systems in condo buildings, sewer backup coverage is particularly important. We recommend reviewing your policy to ensure you have adequate protection against various types of water damage.
What happens if damage to my unit comes from another unit?
If damage to your unit originates from another unit (like a water leak from an upstairs neighbour), your condo insurance would typically cover the damage to your property initially. Your insurance company may then seek reimbursement from the responsible party’s insurance through a process called subrogation. It’s important to document the damage, report it to your condo management, and file a claim promptly.
Do I need to change my insurance if I rent out my condo?
Yes, as a condo owner looking to rent your property, you must change your insurance coverage. Your tenant’s Renter’s Insurance will not protect your property as their policy only covers them and their belongings, not your unit. A Renter’s policy does not include essential protections like Loss Assessment or Contingent coverage that you need as the property owner. Contact us to ensure you have the proper landlord coverage in place before renting out your unit.
