Florida condo insurance (also called HO6 or condominium insurance) is a necessary safeguard for the contents in your home. It picks up where your HOA policy leaves off to protect your walls, furnishings, belongings, liability, and more.
If you own a condo in Florida, you need condo insurance (HO6 insurance) to fill the gaps the homeowners association policy won’t cover.

All our condo insurance policies include $2,000 in loss assessment coverage. This can help pay for your HOA’s assessments for shared losses.

You can always add on more loss assessment protection, too.
