| Insurance & Rentals: What Property Managers Need to Know |
|
We had a great turnout for our last luncheon!
Jeff Stoneking, Associate Agent Owner of Brightway Insurance, graciously
accepted our invitation to speak and shared some helpful insight in
regard to insurance and rental properties. Here are a few more tips following the email recap you received last week:
- Help owners understand preventive measures that may cost additional fees but can lower the chances for a claim: Trim trees, Install Security alarm/video, ensure pools are enclosed with proper child safety fence/gate & keep hot tubs locked
- Know red flags in inspections: Most companies require asphalt shingle roofs to be less than 15 years old; few companies will cover aluminum wiring; red flags in plumbing include galvanized or polybutylene pipes.
- Multiple claims will raise rates, not usually one (unless it's a major claim).
- Vacant property policies are available and can be short (60-90 days). They do cost 3-4 times the standard homeowners policy.
- Property managers can be added to a tenant's renters insurance as an additional interest so that you will be notified if they are late paying.
