Oracle RMS FAQ:

Why do you need commercial condo insurance?

Commercial condo insurance helps to safeguard the commercial unit you use for your business operations as well as the contents within the unit, such as computers, inventory, furnishings, business supplies, as well as other electronics. It can also offer protection for outside business equipment, such as a business sign.

Also, even though your condo corporation will have its own insurance policy, neither your individual unit nor its contents will be covered by this policy. The condo company will only insure the primary structure of the building and any shared common areas, including the entrance lobby, elevators, community activity rooms, and exercise rooms.

Simply put, this means that you are responsible for all losses, damage to personal property, renovations, repairs, and other associated costs, that occur within your condo unit. Therefore, in order to safeguard your condo unit and belongings, you must obtain your own commercial condo insurance coverage.

What insurance do you need for a commercial loft?

While commercial insurance is not required for businesses to own/rent/lease commercial real estate, there are several types of commercial insurance that we recommend.

Of course, you should start with commercial property insurance. With this kind of commercial insurance protection, your company is shielded from a variety of losses and damages, including fire, theft, vandalism, and more. However, it only offers protection for the tangible assets inside and outside of your commercial business, such as the building or unit itself and your inventory, electronics, tools, equipment, and outside fixtures.

Next, we strongly recommend you add commercial general liability insurance. In the event that a third party sustains harm, passes away as a result of their wounds, or has their personal property damaged while on your premises, the policyholder is safeguarded by this portion of a commercial insurance policy. In the event that the policyholder is sued, it will help cover claims up to the coverage’s maximum. Also, it will cover the expense of settling a claim.

Combined, these two commercial insurance policies will help to protect you, your business, and your commercial property from many of the everyday risks and perils that a commercial space can face.

What is the most common claim denial on a commercial condo?

A claim that was not submitted on time. For a variety of reasons, commercial property owners may be inclined to postpone filing an insurance claim when property damage occurs. While some owners may be worried about how submitting a claim would affect their insurance rates, others may prefer to see if they can do the repairs themselves first.

Whatever the case, owners of commercial real estate should not delay for too long when filing a claim, as the majority of insurance policies stipulate that the insured must tell their insurance provider about a loss as soon as possible. What you may not realize is that there are additional deadlines that an insurance company must follow in order to complete an investigation into a claim. Therefore, if a policyholder waits too long to submit a claim, their insurance provider may deny it because they won’t have enough time to meet the other deadlines.

How are commercial property insurance rates determined?

Every owner of a commercial space will pay a different premium for their insurance coverage. This is because a variety of factors, such as the location of your commercial property, the size of the space, and the kind of business you intend to operate there, are used by insurance providers to estimate insurance rates. Your insurer will take the following things into account when figuring out how much your commercial property insurance will cost:

• The nature of your business
• How many people live or work in your condo unit.
• The size, location, and condition of your business unit, as well as its age.
• Deductibles, limits, and coverages under your policy
• Your anticipated yearly income
• Your history of insurance claims

How do you calculate replacement cost on a commercial property?

The replacement cost of a commercial property is the sum of money needed to construct a comparable structure at today’s rates for labour, building materials, and land.

Although determining a property’s replacement cost can be complicated, the “cost approach” is the most popular method to use. The cost approach is essentially founded on the knowledge that consumers associate value with price. The estimated value of the land is added to the current cost of building a reproduction or possibly a replacement for the improvements in the cost approach, and the total depreciation in the structures from all causes is then subtracted to get the value of a commercial property.

Working with experts such as estimators and contractors will help you quickly and more easily determine the replacement cost of a commercial property. In order to determine current capitalization rates, these experts will look at comparable buildings of equal quality. They will also take other aspects, such as market conditions, the current building code, and the building materials used in construction, to develop a thorough cost estimate.

Can commercial property insurance rates rise?

Absolutely. There are several factors that can affect the price of commercial insurance, leading to an increase in rates. Some of these factors include current inflation, the cost of current interest rates, the current economic state, and even events such as an increase in severe weather that leads to more frequent insurance claims.
