Contents Coverage

Protects your personal belongings such as furniture, electronics, cookware, clothing, etc.

Personal Liability Coverage

To help with legal fees, medical payments, and settlements if someone is injured in your unit or if you or a family member causes damage to someone else’s property (including other condo units and the common areas).

Coverage to help pay for temporary housing, food, and other living expenses if you are unable to live in your unit after a claim, while repairs are being completed.
