What is condo insurance and do I need it?
Condominiums occupy a special category in real estate. They’re not apartments. But they’re not single-family homes either. So it’s no surprise they have their own unique category in insurance, too.
Unlike your home insurance policy, your condo policy works in conjunction with your master homeowners association (HOA) policy to provide protection for your condominium. The HOA policy is responsible for the exterior, and your condo policy is for protecting the interior of the condominium, your personal property along with several other important coverages.
Ways to save on condo insurance
Condo insurance can be affordable, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find an additional way to save money. Here are a few ways to save on condo coverage.
The new condo discount
If you’re moving into a new condo, you could get a discount right off the bat. Seriously! Some carriers provide a discount for new homes. That’s easy. There are other discounts that are almost that easy to earn too.
Protective devices
Get a discount if your condo has smoke detectors, fire alarms, burglar alarms, or other qualifying devices. There may even be discounts for smart home devices! If you’re not sure, ask your agent.
Bundle auto & condo insurance
When you bundle home and auto, it’s called a multi-policy discount. Bundle multiple insurance policies with the same insurers (like condo & car or motorcycle), and you could save … BIG time.
What does condo insurance cover?
There are four general condominium insurance coverages: personal property, personal liability, damage to the unit structure, and additional living expenses. Many plans bundle all of these coverages into one comprehensive insurance policy.
Personal Property
Personal belongings like clothing, electronics, furniture, appliances, tools, and power equipment are all covered by personal property coverage on the condo policy (up to the limits purchased) They’re covered most times even if they aren’t in the condo when damaged.
Example: A water leak happens in your bedroom and your clothes, furniture, and audio and video equipment are damaged. If a covered loss, your condo insurance may cover these items up to the limits purchased.
Personal Liability
Personal liability insurance may cover you if you’re responsible for another person’s injuries or property damages. If it’s a concern, some condo policies allow you to add coverage for libel, slander, or other lawsuits.
Example: A friend slips and falls inside your condo due to a water spill and slippery tiles. In the fall the friend breaks their wrist. If the friend makes a claim or even sues you, your policy can pay for their medical bills and lost wages due to injury, as well as provide legal defense.
Damage to Unit Interior
When your condo unit is damaged, your master HOA policy normally covers the walls and community common areas, but what about your interior upgrades? Typically the master HOA policy won’t cover the interior, but your condo insurance policy will – up to the purchased limits.
Example: A fire happens in the condo’s kitchen and damages the walls, cabinets, countertops, and appliances. Most condo association insurance policies won’t cover your interior upgrades. Your condo insurance may cover these items – up to the limit. With the appliances covered under personal property.
Additional Living Expense
If your condo is damaged due to a covered loss, and you’re unable to live in the home during repairs, your additional living expense or loss of use coverage can pay for temporary housing. It can even pay for daily necessities, like meals, that are above your normal daily expense.
Example: Your condo is damaged from a falling tree and exposes the home’s interior and you cannot live there while they repair the condo. The repairs take four weeks. Your temporary housing bill will cost $4,000. This expense will be covered, as well as meal expenses above your usual food costs.

Got questions about condo insurance?
We’ve got answers.
Condominium insurance rates vary depending on many factors including how much it would cost to rebuild your unit, the condition and age of your condo, and your location. But great news! Most insurance companies offer discounts and savings to help make your condo policy affordable.
Your homeowner’s association (HOA) likely has insurance that covers the general risk in your building. A condo association policy is maintained through HOA fees that the collective condo owners pay. Basically, everyone pays a small premium to insure the entire community. However, that may not insure the interior of your condo.
Make sure you ask questions and understand the HOA insurance policy. It helps to know exactly what to expect from your HOA. Most HOAs will cover common areas and the exterior structure, but the homeowner remains responsible for the interior.
