Best Answer

You are responsible for any damage caused to someone else's property, why did they let you move in the condo without proper insurance is beyond me, whether the unit below you is rented or not is of no consequence, the unit is damaged because of your fridge, so you will probably be sued for damages.

Another Answer

Read your governing documents to determine your requirement to carry an HO-6 policy, which may or may not be stated there. Inquire of your board as to your responsibility for carrying an HO-6 policy.

The bigger issue is to repair the damage, which because it involves water, will precipitate mold growth.

Because you own the refrigerator and because it leaked causing damage not only to your unit, but to the unit below and the property between the floors that belongs to everyone -- common area -- you may well be responsible to pay for the repair.

Carrying an HO-6 insurance policy on a condominium is not only best practices, but is good, common sense. Your question is a good example of why.

Would a homeowners association be responsible for interior damage to a home where there was a leak in the roof The Homeowners association says it is only responsible for the exterior problems?

The association's master policy -- that covers all the real estate that the association owns/ owners own with all other owners -- spells out its coverage in the event of a leaky roof. If you carry an HO-6 policy -- individual unit owners insurance -- you can turn the issue over to your insurance carrier and give the carrier the authority to work it out with the master policy carrier. Otherwise, you may be able to learn more by contacting the master policy carrier directly. Your association's board may not be fully knowledgeable about its insurance coverage.
