Compare Condo (HO-6) Insurance for Pelican Marsh Unit Owners
Your association’s master policy protects the building and common areas—but not everything inside your home. We size your “walls-in” Coverage A, add Loss Assessment, Water Backup, Ordinance or Law, and the right personal liability so you’re protected in Pelican Marsh’s unique housing landscape.
Why HO-6 Matters in Pelican Marsh
Condo ownership splits responsibility between the association (for the building and common elements) and you (for the interior and your belongings). Pelican Marsh’s mix of upscale communities and coastal properties means master policies and bylaws aren’t uniform—some are bare-walls, others are all-in. Your HO-6 fills what the master policy doesn’t, covering your unit’s interior, upgrades, personal property, and liability.
Local considerations: hurricane risks and flooding increase water-damage and code-upgrade exposure; many associations use higher deductibles, making loss assessment limits important. If your unit is near water or low-lying, water backup and flood insurance become especially valuable.
Step 1: Identify Your Master Policy Type
| Master Policy Type | What It Usually Covers | Your HO-6 Should Emphasize |
|---|---|---|
| Bare-Walls / Studs-Out | Structure & common elements up to the unfinished interior surface | Higher Coverage A (walls-in) for drywall, flooring, cabinets, built-ins, fixtures; betterments & improvements |
| All-In / Single-Entity | Structure, common elements, and standard interior finishes originally provided | Upgrades beyond original specs, personal property, loss assessment, and water backup |
| Modified All-In | All-in with carve-outs (e.g., interior glass, fixtures) | Targeted walls-in for carved-out items + loss assessment |
Bring your master policy certificate and the insurance section of the bylaws/master deed. We’ll read the definitions with you and tailor Coverage A precisely.
Step 2: Build the Right HO-6 Package
Walls-In (Coverage A)
- Drywall, paint, flooring, built-ins, cabinets, countertops
- Fixtures (sinks, tubs, lighting), interior doors & trim
- Betterments & improvements above “builder grade”
Personal Property (Coverage C)
- Furniture, clothing, electronics—choose RC or ACV
- Schedule jewelry/fine arts; consider special sub-limits
- Off-premises protection for items temporarily away
Loss of Use (ALE)
- Temporary housing & extra living costs after a covered loss
- Crucial if damage in a neighboring unit affects yours
Personal Liability & MedPay
- $300k–$1M typical; consider a Personal Umbrella
- Guests’ medical payments regardless of fault (limits vary)
Key Add-Ons
- Loss Assessment—for HOA deductibles or shortfalls after a covered loss
- Water Backup / Sump Overflow—especially for coastal or low-lying units
- Ordinance or Law—code-required upgrades to your interior after a loss
- Equipment Breakdown—for sudden failure of covered systems (availability varies)
- Service Line—damage to underground lines you’re responsible for (availability varies)
Step 3: Sizing Your Limits (Pelican Marsh-Specific Tips)
- Walls-In: If your building is bare-walls, price out replacement for finishes & fixtures at today’s local costs; include any high-end upgrades.
- Loss Assessment: Ask your board/manager about the master policy deductible (many associations use higher deductibles). Choose a limit that can realistically cover your potential share, especially post-storm.
- Water Backup: Pelican Marsh’s coastal location increases the value of this endorsement—consider higher sub-limits if your unit is near water or below grade.
- Ordinance or Law: Valuable in areas where hurricane-related repairs trigger code updates.
- Umbrella: If you also rent the unit or have higher risk exposures, add a personal umbrella for extra liability.

Renting Out Your Condo?
If the unit is tenant-occupied, we’ll pivot to the appropriate landlord form (or condo-landlord variant) to reflect rental liability and loss of rents. Florida law requires rental registration and compliance with local ordinances before leasing; we’ll align your policy and issue any required certificates for your association, lender, or the county.
