Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about insurance for real estate investors businesses

Commercial insurance protects your business from financial losses due to unexpected events like property damage, lawsuits, employee injuries, and vehicle accidents. Without proper coverage, a single incident could devastate your business financially. Most states require certain coverages like Workers Compensation, and many contracts require proof of insurance before you can work with clients or landlords.
Commercial Property insurance protects your business's physical assets including buildings you own, equipment, inventory, furniture, and fixtures. It covers losses from fire, theft, vandalism, storms, and other covered perils. This coverage is essential whether you own your building or lease space, as it protects the contents and improvements you've made.
Review your coverage at least annually at renewal time, but also whenever your business changes significantly. This includes adding employees, purchasing equipment, expanding locations, taking on new types of work, or signing contracts with specific insurance requirements. Regular reviews ensure you're not over-insured or dangerously under-insured.
