What Is Condominium Insurance?

Condominium insurance, sometimes called an HO-6 policy, is a type of coverage designed specifically for condo unit owners. While your condo association may carry a master policy that insures the building’s structure and common areas, individual unit owners are typically responsible for insuring the interior of their units and personal property.

This type of insurance may also help protect against certain types of liability and temporary living expenses if your unit becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss. Every condo association in New Jersey has its own insurance guidelines, so it’s important to review your bylaws when shopping for coverage.

Why Do I Need Condo Insurance In New Jersey?

New Jersey’s condo market is diverse, with properties ranging from seaside communities to urban developments in places like Hoboken and Jersey City. While condo associations often have master insurance policies, those policies usually don’t cover everything inside your unit.

Condo insurance can help cover costs related to damage or loss to things like flooring, cabinets, personal belongings, and appliances, depending on your specific policy. It may also provide personal liability coverage in case someone is injured inside your unit. Given the variation in condo bylaws across New Jersey, personalized coverage is often key.

  • While policies vary, many condo insurance plans may include the following types of protection:

    • Personal Property Coverage – This can help replace belongings such as furniture, electronics, and clothing if they’re damaged or stolen due to a covered event.
    • Interior Structure Coverage – Sometimes called “walls-in” coverage, this may apply to interior walls, flooring, built-in fixtures, and improvements you’ve made to your unit.
    • Liability Coverage – This could provide protection if a guest is injured in your condo and you are found legally responsible.
    • Loss of Use – If your condo becomes unlivable due to a covered incident, this may help with temporary housing and additional living expenses.

     

    Coverage options and limits will depend on your individual policy and the condo association’s master insurance plan.

  • Condo insurance is distinct in that it covers a portion of the property that is privately owned within a shared structure. Unlike homeowners insurance, which typically covers the entire building and the land it sits on, condo insurance usually focuses on the interior of your unit and your personal belongings.

    Compared to renters insurance, condo insurance goes a step further by including coverage for parts of the physical unit, which renters are generally not responsible for. Understanding what your condo association’s master policy covers—and what it doesn’t—is crucial when selecting the right coverage.

  • Several factors can influence your condo insurance premium, including:

    • Location of Your Condo – Units in high-risk areas (like coastal regions prone to storms) may come with higher premiums.
    • Type of Construction and Age of the Building – Older buildings or those made from materials prone to damage can affect your rate.
    • Coverage Limits and Deductibles – Higher limits and lower deductibles generally lead to higher premiums.
    • Claims History – A record of past claims can impact your insurance costs.
    • Security Features – Features such as smoke detectors, alarm systems, and gated access may help reduce your premium.

     

    Because every condo unit and association is different, we work with you one-on-one to explore policy options that suit your specific needs and budget.

  • It depends. Condo association master policies in New Jersey typically fall into one of three categories:

    1. Bare Walls Coverage – Covers only the basic structure of the building, not interior fixtures or finishes.
    2. Single Entity Coverage – Covers the structure and some built-in features but not personal upgrades or belongings.
    3. All-In Coverage – Offers broader protection, possibly including some interior finishes, though personal property is still excluded.

     

    Knowing which type of master policy your association carries will help determine the amount and type of coverage you may want to consider for your own condo insurance.

  • At Connor-McClure Insurance Services, we’re proud to serve condo owners throughout New Jersey. Our experienced agents are here to help you:

    • Understand what your condo association’s master policy covers
