What does condo insurance cover in St. Petersburg?

Condo insurance helps cover personal belongings, liability risks and interior portions of your unit not covered by the HOA for covered perils such as fire, theft, smoke damage and certain water damage claims.

• Personal property coverage
• Personal liability coverage
