When you own a condo, you share common areas with your neighbor. You also share common exteriors with other condo owners. The condo association carries insurance to cover the exterior and common areas.&nbsp;This&nbsp;includes things like&nbsp;elevators,&nbsp;&nbsp;hallways, and a pool. How deeply into your condo, their coverage goes depends on the condo association policy. It would be best if you read their policy&nbsp;before you go to get your condo coverage. At&nbsp;The Merhar Agency LLC in Willoughby, OH, we have been in business for 65 years, and we share our vast experience with our customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Property<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Even though the condo association covers your condo&#8217;s exterior, you still have a property that needs to be covered. If the coverage is walls-in, it means that things like the kitchen cabinets, floors,&nbsp;bathroom fixtures, and lighting are all things that are your responsibility.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Liability<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Liability is coverage that everyone needs. When you have any assets, you are vulnerable to legal action taken against you. Suppose someone is injured while visiting your condo or by a member of your family, you may get sued. This can be expensive not only because of the judgment, but legal fees mount up quickly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Contents<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You have a lot more personal possessions than you probably realize. Even just having to replace your electronics is a daunting prospect, let alone all your furniture and clothing. You have two options with content coverage, replacement cost, and actual value.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Loss of use<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When your condo gets damage, it may not be habitable. You will need a place to stay. Loss of use coverage will pay for a hotel until you can find a short term rental.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Contact The Merhar Agency LLC in Willoughby, OH for a no-obligation condo insurance quote or any other insurance need you may have,&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are new to owning a condo, you may not realize the difference between condo insurance and home insurance.
