How to compare condo insurance companies

There are three main metrics on which you should compare condo insurance companies:

  1. Rates. You shouldn't overpay for good coverage, and with rates on the rise finding coverage you can afford takes some comparison. Gather quotes from three to five insurers to compare before you buy.
  2. Coverage. You should decide what coverage you need and and the extra options you'd like to add, and request all of your quotes at those levels and with those extras. Note any extra coverage one company offers that another doesn't, or even if extra coverage or higher limits are standard with one company.
  3. Reputation. The cheapest rate does you no good when you file a claim and run into hassles. Research each company's reputation for customer service and claims as well as their financial stability. There's a good reason we include these factors in our rankings.

What you should consider before buying condo insurance

Mortgage lenders will typically require you to have condo insurance coverage as long as you’re paying off the loan. However, you don’t want to end up paying for more coverage than you need.

Start by reviewing what’s covered in your homeowners association's master policy. Your HOA insurance policy likely caps out at a certain amount and you’ll be responsible for any loss over the limit. In addition, master policies only cover a condo’s exterior areas. If you want financial protection for overages not covered by a master policy, or to cover theft or loss from covered perils such as a fire, you’ll need your own condo insurance policy.

Knowing how much condo insurance you’ll need requires an estimate of the value of your items. Do a rough tally of your personal property, as well as the cost of the materials and improvements. For example, take into account the quality and cost of your kitchen cabinets, type of flooring and any upgrades to your bathrooms. In addition, most policies set limits for items valuable personal property, such as high-value jewelry, electronics and firearms. You may want to add a scheduled personal property endorsement to cover special items worth over $1,000.

As with all types of insurance, shop around for the best value. You may find that the same limit or the identical amount of coverage could vary in price significantly from one carrier to another. Get insurance quotes from at least three providers. When shopping for a condo insurance policy, don’t forget to take advantage of carrier discounts such as bundling condo and auto insurance or adding a home security system for extra savings.

Methodology

Insurance.com’s sister site, Insure.com, in the fall of 2024, surveyed more than 1,500 insurance consumers (805 people with home insurance). The survey was conducted by online market research company Slice MR.

Respondents were asked to name their home insurer and then grade it in the following categories: customer satisfaction, ease of service, claims satisfaction and policy offerings. The percentage of respondents who said they were satisfied or very satisfied with their insurer is presented in the results.

Rate data was fielded in 2024 through Quadrant Data Services, and is based on a condo (HO-6) policy with coverage of $60,000 in personal property, $300,000 in liability and a $1,000 deductible.

Other ratings were gathered through third-party sources J.D. Power and AM Best.

Frequently asked questions

What is covered under condominium insurance?

Similar to a homeowners insurance policy, standard condo insurance coverage provides you with several types of coverage:

  • Personal belongings or personal property coverage: Your condo’s contents, so coverage for your personal belongings
  • Interior damage: Damages to systems and building materials such as plumbing, electrical and walls
  • Homeowners association's master policy coverage limits: Pays for damages over the HOA’s master policy limit
  • Loss of use coverage or additional living expenses: Covers housing and living expenses if you’re forced to temporarily move out
  • Personal liability: Liability coverage provides financial protection in case a guest is injured on your property

What company has the cheapest condo insurance?

State Farm has the cheapest condo insurance on average at $441 a year among the major carriers we compared.

Do I need homeowners insurance for a condo?

Home lenders will typically require you to have insurance coverage for your condo. While a homeowners insurance policy is similar, condo insurance is designed specifically for condo owners. Nearly all homeowners insurance companies also offer condo insurance policies.

How much condominium insurance coverage do I need?

How much condo coverage you need depends on the type of policy your HOA has as well as how much coverage you need for personal property. Take the time to understand what your HOA covers and make a full inventory of your belongings.

Add earthquake or flood insurance if you live in an area prone to either natural disaster. You can also add sewer backup coverage if you don't want to assume the risk yourself.
