Insurance brokers work for their customers, whether they are individuals or businesses. They research the market for coverage options, share those options with their clients, and then help them apply for and purchase coverage from insurance companies. Brokers also shop renewals amongst all the companies they have access to each year. They can also help assess risks and provide claims assistance.
Condo insurance is for people who own a condominium. It covers liability and contents as well as any upgrades you make within your condo or any assessments levied against you by your condo corporation in the event your condo corporation is under insured.
If your property was damaged or broken into, you should do the following:
- Document exactly what happened
- Note the time and location of the incident
- Take as many pictures/videos of the damage as possible
- Make a list of any items that are damaged or missing
- Keep all receipts of any expenses associated with the incident
- Keep a record of any investigating officers including name, badge number, and occurrence number.
