To determine how much condo insurance you need, you are best advised to insure the contents of your unit, because the association's master policy insures the real estate assets that all owners own in common. You can work with a broker and a copy of the master policy to determine the insurance coverage you want and need.

IF my upstairs condo is untouched by a flood but the building's ground floor is damaged so badly that the entire building is unlivable would my flood insurance protect me?

Let's first review what a condo is. A condominium is an arrangement in which you own your own living space outright (your condo apartment), and you share joint ownership (with all the other condo owners) of the common spaces. There will be (at least) two insurance policies in effect: (1) the condo association policy, which covers (at least) the common areas, and (2) your own personal policy, which covers the contents of your condo apartment, and depending upon your coverage, may also cover the internal structural elements (walls, floors, ceilings, fixtures, countertops, etc.) of your specific condo unit. Since there is no damage to your condo unit, your personal condo insurance will probably not apply, even if you have flood insurance. So, the answer to your question depends upon what type of policy your condo association holds. You should therefore ask your condo association.

Hi Foreigner and own condo in Florida and need to get car insurance on dodge ram 7 seats also need condo insurance quotes on car insurance are very high why will only be using few months a year?

The state of FL requires that you carry car insurance every day that you have a vehicle registered, regardless how often you are driving. So even if you are not driving the vehicle daily the insurance is going to apply every day. I know this is not the best system for you, but this is the way it is. You're best off calling around and getting quotes at multiple companies, for this situation I recommend calling no fewer than 10 companies for quotes.


Can you get condo insurance in Florida with existing damage from Hurricane Wilma and are waiting for condo association to fix inside walls so you can fix drywall and paint and recarpet?

Probably not. Insurance companies do NOT want to offer insurance when there is pre-existing damage present, as the old damage could be covered under the new policy. Which makes sense, b/c they were not your insurer at the time and therefore should not be held responsible for repairing old damage. It seems to me that you may have to check with the Florida Department of Insurance and pursue coverage through the Citizens Property Insurance Corporation. I also recommend asking for legal advice pertaining to the fact that the condo association hasn't repaired their part of the damage yet. Unless the delay is a result of something beyond their control, they need to have someone light a fire under them to get this taken care of. It's not fair to any of the condo unit owners that their ability to get insurance be limited b/c of them. Also, many companies do not offer new insurance if you have gone with a lapse of coverage... even for a condo, this is a common underwriting guideline in FL. I encourage you to pursue your options with the Florida Department of Insurance. Best of Luck!
