Home Owners

A home policy is a package policy which includes coverage for physical structure of your home, outbuildings, your personal property, additional living expenses following a loss, and your personal liability. Because no one policy covers everything, optional add-on coverage and increased limits are available to better protect you.

Condominium Owners

If you are a condominium owner, it is important to determine the definition of a ‘standard unit’. The definition of a unit is outlined in the corporation declarations. Condominiums built after May 5, 2001 will outline the definition of a unit in the declarations. For existing condominiums the corporation must pass a bylaw establishing the definition of a unit because there is no standard definition of a unit. For example, a typical standard unit may or may not include light and plumbing fixtures, floor coverings and cupboards. You must know what the unit owner’s responsibility is in order for your company to provide proper and adequate coverage. Condominium Insurance Broker

The Condominium policy also includes coverage for any improvements an owner makes, above and beyond the standard definition of the unit. The policy covers liability loss assessment and condominium additional coverage that the condominium corporation may impose on you. Our service representatives are here to explain all coverage and policy features in detail with you.

Tenants

In the case of renting an apartment, tenants are responsible for any damage to the building as a result of their actions. If you accidentally cause a fire in your unit, you could be held responsible for all damage to the building. Insurance policies will coverage that exposure.

Tenants insurance provides coverage for your personal property as well as additional living expenses should your home not be livable as a result of a claim. Landlords do not carry coverage for tenant’s property if a loss occurs. It is your responsibility to cover your contents and liability exposure.

Seasonal Dwellings

Those fortunate enough to own cottages appreciate being able to simply relax and enjoy any season at their home away from home. More and more cottages are becoming all season dwellings, with more luxuries of home. Many of our companies now offer packages similar to a home policy that allows for personal property and coverage on the building at replacement cost value. A policy is also available for the cottage owner who is mainly concerned with liability and can accept limited coverage on the building. Let’s discuss what’s best for you.

Rental Properties

Properties that you own but rent to others are in a class by themselves. These properties can be a great source of income; however, it is important that you protect that revenue by ensuring you have insurance specifically tailored to your exposures. As your insurance broker we can help you decide on the type of coverage you require to best protect your asset.
