Insurance Requirements
The minimum insurance coverage levels that the association and individual homeowners must maintain as specified in the governing documents, state law, and lender requirements. The association master policy typically covers common area structures and liability. Homeowners must carry individual HO-6 policies (or equivalent) for interior improvements, personal property, and personal liability. Some documents require owners to provide proof of insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need my own insurance if the HOA has a master policy?
Yes. The HOA master policy typically covers the building structure and common areas but does not cover your personal property, interior improvements, personal liability, or loss assessments. An individual HO-6 policy fills these gaps and is strongly recommended — many governing documents and mortgage lenders require it.
