Coverage Details

Condo insurance provides specialized coverage for condo owners. This coverage includes:
Coverage for your personal property: Condo insurance covers your personal property whether or not it is located in your condo. Clothing, appliances, electronics, jewellery, and other personal belongings can quickly add up in value. It’s essential to have enough coverage in case these items are damaged.
Personal liability coverage: This type of coverage helps protect you if you accidentally damage someone’s property or injure someone. Personal liability coverage can offset legal costs and can also help you cover any damages the court may ask you to pay.
Coverage for additional living expenses: When your condo is damaged to the point that it becomes unlivable, this coverage can help you pay for additional living expenses, including the cost of staying in a hotel, additional costs for food, and more.
Coverage for upgrades and improvements to your unit: Your physical condo unit is typically covered by your condominium corporation’s insurance, but any improvements, betterments, or upgrades you make to your condo unit will not be covered by the corporation’s insurance. Imagine you replace your condo unit’s carpet with new hardwood floors, and those floors become damaged—your condo insurance will help cover the damages.
Loss assessment coverage: Loss assessment is a fee that a condo corporation can charge to condo owners in order to cover the deductible of the condo corporation’s insurance policy in the event of a loss. Loss assessments can be thousands of dollars and condominium insurance can help cover these costs.
Your condo corporation will have its own insurance to cover your physical condo, the common areas of the condo building, and more. When purchasing a condo insurance policy, it’s important to consider the coverage that your condo corporation has already purchased; this can help you ensure that you have enough coverage for loss assessments, unit improvements, and more.

Cost of Condo Insurance in Manitoba

The costs of condo insurance vary significantly depending on a number of different factors, including:
The value of your coverage, including personal property coverage, liability coverage, unit improvement coverage, and more
The location of your condo
Your claims history
Features of your condo: How it’s heated, the electrical system, its construction, and other features
And more
The team at R.A. Hughes Agencies will look through dozens of policies from different insurers on your behalf. Our goal is to find you a policy that offers affordable coverage, giving you the protection you need at the best possible price.

Claims Example

Here’s a simple example of how a condominium insurance claim might work:

Your personal property is insured for $50,000; you’ve also made about $10,000 worth of improvements to your condo. There’s a catastrophic fire—your personal property is destroyed, as is the condo unit. There is a $2000 deductible on your policy. When you make a claim, if everything is covered, you will be paid $58,000 ($60,000 minus your $2000 deductible). You may also receive payments for additional living expenses and to cover loss assessment for damage to the condo building at large.

This is a very basic example of how insurance claims work as a simple illustration of how valuable insurance can be. Need to make a condominium insurance claim on a policy sold through R.A. Hughes? Visit our office or call us. We can answer any questions you may have.
