What should an HOA board look for in an insurance program?

Boards make insurance decisions on behalf of their neighbors.

The short version

Look at the whole program together: property, liability, directors and officers, crime, cyber, workers’ compensation and umbrella, compared with your governing documents and Florida requirements.

What to know

  • Hurricane deductibles are often a percentage of the insured value, so ask what that is in dollars
  • Property valuations can go out of date
  • Crime coverage limits should reflect the money the association holds

Questions to ask

  • When was our last insurance valuation?
  • Does our program meet our documents?
  • What does a major hurricane mean for owners financially?
