Unit owner’s insurance is tailored to meet the unique coverage needs of households living in attached units such as condominiums.  Unit ownerâs insurance is similar coverage to homeownerâs insurance in that it can protect the structure  as well as the contents of your home.
In many circumstances, the condominium association or similar community association in your development may provide coverage for the physical building and structure. Â In this case, your policy would need to cover just those risks not protected by the community association insurance. Â The deductible for your community association’s insurance may be very high. Â Unit owner’s insurance can help you lower your out of pocket cost in the event of a loss by covering all or part of the deductible.
As a unit owner  you need coverage that matches your budget and risk. Our team will will help you understand what policies are protecting your unit and where there might be gaps in your coverage for contents and liabilities associated with being a property owner. As an independent insurance agent, OâConnor insurance can make sure you are getting the best value from your unit ownerâs insurance dollar.
