Personal Umbrella Insurance for Kaiser Households
Add $1M–$10M of liability protection above your auto and home/condo/renters policies. We set the right underlying limits for Missouri, coordinate with your landlord or marina needs.
Why Kaiser Residents Choose Umbrella Coverage
Lake activities, rural roads, and potential for property-related incidents increase the chance of large liability claims. If a judgment exceeds the limits on your auto or homeowners policy, an umbrella helps protect savings, home equity, and future income.
We’ll sync your base policies with carrier requirements, then add an umbrella limit that fits your household, drivers, and properties.
Missouri Context: Underlying Policies & Landlord Rules
Auto Policy: Minimum Requirements
Missouri requires minimum auto liability of $25k/$50k/$10k, but umbrella carriers typically want higher limits like $100k/$300k or more. We’ll ensure your policy meets these to qualify.
Home/Condo/Renters Liability
Most umbrellas require at least $100k–$300k personal liability on your homeowners/condo/renters policy. We’ll also look at watercraft, ATVs, and other exposures that may need scheduled underlying coverage.
Landlords & Business Owners
Missouri law requires liability insurance for rental properties in some areas; check local ordinances. Your personal umbrella generally excludes business pursuits; landlords may need a landlord or commercial umbrella to sit over those policies.
Kaiser Area Registration
In Camden County, including Kaiser, rental properties may have local requirements. We’ll coordinate certificates of insurance when your lender, association, or local authorities ask.
Tip: Keep records for teen drivers’ training, alarm systems, and any dog training or fencing—these can help with underwriting.

How Much Limit? What Does It Cost in MO?
