REAL ESTATE INVESTORS, DOES YOUR INSURANCE AGENT ASK THE RIGHT QUESTIONS?

YOUR INSURANCE AGENT SHOULD UNDERSTAND THE TYPE OF INSURANCE THAT REAL ESTATE INVESTORS NEED

Too often, real estate insurance agents make a significant misstep by failing to ask the appropriate questions. For example, information such as who you are subcontracting (and whether or not they are insured), what kind of investment property type you have (for example are you housing for students or section 8 housing), as well as what type of construction you might be undertaking, are all relevant information. An insurance agent that specifically deals with this type of insurance will not only know to as these questions, but they will also know what the answers mean in terms of what types of real estate insurance rates you will see.

The Problem With Not Knowing About Real Estate Insurance

Without specific and direct questions, your agent will simply not know what type of insurance you will need for that particular property. This can cost you significant time and money in the long run. For instance, if you are a multifamily real estate investor, then it is suggested you get dog bite coverage, liquor liability if you have a pool, and a number of other liability and coverage types. All of this would give you the best rates possible  for the type of insurance you need.
