Physical structure Coverage

Risk Factors

If a storm damages an apartment building’s roof, the owner can file a claim against his or her physical structure coverage

Solution

This type of coverage protects the building’s structure, like its foundation, roof and walls. It also covers detached structures on the property, like garages and maintenance buildings.

Liability coverage

Risk Factors

You may need to pay medical expenses and legal costs when a tenant, customer of a tenant or guest at a residential property sustains an injury.

Solution

Typically, this type of coverage doesn’t cover everyday misfortunes of tenants, such as a tenant slipping and falling in his kitchen. But if a leaky roof causes a guest to slip and fall in a common area such as a lobby, liability coverage can pay medical costs and legal bills.

Equipment breakdown coverage

Risk Factors

Landlords can face big repair and replacement cost bills if a power surge damages a building electrical system resulting in damage of a grass cutting machine or a heating boiler exploding.

Solution

Equipment breakdown coverage can help a landlord repair or replace damaged equipment.

Fair rental value coverage Coverage

Risk Factors

While tenants move out of the office building due to the tornado damage, the landlord needs to pay for its repairs.

Solution

This type of coverage can help pay for lost rental income if a building becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss. For instance, if tenants must move out of an office building to repair tornado damage, fair rental value coverage can reimburse the landlord for a portion of the lost rental income.

Ordinance of law coverage

Risk Factors

Oftentimes, older rental properties don’t meet current building codes.

Solution

If a property sustains a covered structural loss, ordinance of law coverage can help cover the additional cost of reconstructing the building to meet current codes.

What is Real Estate Investor Insurance?

Real estate investor insurance specifically targets property managers, family offices, trusts, and individual and corporate real estate investors. Often referred to as "landlord insurance," this type of insurance can be applied to a variety of rental properties. At Hecht-Stout Insurance Agency, we simplify the process of insuring investor property portfolios in Illinois.

Avoiding the pitfalls of under-insuring, over-insuring, or selecting inappropriate insurance for your investment properties is crucial. Consider the following coverages:

  • Property and General Liability
  • Workers Compensation Insurance
  • Flood Insurance
  • Wind/Hail Insurance
  • Earthquake Insurance

Cost of Real Estate Investor Insurance

The cost of real estate investor insurance differs greatly and is influenced by factors such as the property type, condition, size, location of the property, owner profile, and previous claims. 

Maintaining a good cash flow means paying for only necessary coverage. Having the right insurance for your real estate investments in Dunlap can help protect you from significant and unexpected losses.

Importance of Appropriate Coverage

Understanding your existing policies and regularly consulting with a trusted insurance agent from Hecht-Stout Insurance Agency is essential. This ensures that your coverage is adequate and up-to-date. Being underinsured when a disaster strikes can have catastrophic consequences, making it too late to adjust your coverage.
