What is strata water deductible, and why would I need to top it up?
As a Condo owner, you have a Strata corporation that has insurance for the building as a whole including shared common areas, in addition to your own condo policy which covers your individual unit. Your strata’s insurance policy has certain deductibles that they would charge each owner in the event of a claim. Your base policy will provide coverage for this in Condo Deductible Protection, so be sure to match this coverage with what your strata requires. Unfortunately, in recent months a large number of BC Strata Corporations have seen their water deductibles increase significantly, which now far exceeds the limit offered by the insurance carrier covering the individual condos. In other words, the strata deductible offered in your base policy can be much lower than what the strata corporation requires. Therefore, to ensure you are not held personally responsible for the difference in the event of a claim, you can purchase a top-up or buy-back coverage to match what the strata requires. Our buy-back option addresses the exposure after both the building policy and the personal condo policy have exhausted their limits, essentially closing the gap.
Why do I need tenant insurance? Isn’t insurance my landlord’s responsibility?
Both parties should have an insurance policy as each one will cover different things. The landlord's insurance covers the property itself, their contents, loss of rental income, and premise liability. This coverage does not extend to tenants. Tenants insurance covers your personal belongings, your own tenant liability insurance, and any extra living expenses that you would incur should you have to temporarily relocate while your place is being repaired.
