HO-6: Unit-owners Form

Tory Tiger Explaining Insurance Policy
"HO-6, the condo-dweller’s dream policy! This one’s like a perfectly tailored suit for your not-quite-a-house, not-quite-an-apartment lifestyle. It’s got your unit covered; walls, floors, ceilings—basically, everything inside your little slice of condo paradise. Flood from your upstairs neighbor's tragic bathtub incident? Covered. Your building’s roof or hallways? Yeah, that’s your HOA’s problem. But your personal stuff and some liability? HO-6 is all over it like syrup on pancakes."

HO-6: Unit-owners Form

The HO-6 form, also known as condo insurance, is tailored for condominium owners. It covers personal property, interior structures (such as walls, flooring, and fixtures), and improvements within the unit against named perils. HO-6 policies also include liability protection and additional living expenses if the unit becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss. Coverage typically excludes the building’s exterior and common areas, which are protected by the condo association's master policy.

HO-6 POLICY TYPE: Named Peril

HO-6 DWELLING COVERAGE: No Coverage

HO-6 PERSONAL PROPERTY COVERAGE: Actual Cash Value (ACV)

WHO IS THE HO-6 FORM FOR?  Owners of a condo or co-op unit will need HO-6 policy. Renters of a condo unit would get an HO-4 policy, not an HO-6.
