Personalized Coverage

Sometimes you need more coverage than your neighbor. That’s why United Fire gives you numerous options to enhance your condo coverage.
  • Loss Assessment: Being a part of a condominium association carries the risk of incurring additional expenses when the association charges all unit owners for certain kinds of loss. Purchasing Loss Assessment coverage from United Fire helps pay for your share of these losses.
  • Additions and Alterations: You may have customized your condo with permanent improvements, such as floor and wall coverings, cabinets, kitchen appliances and light fixtures. Generally, these additions are not covered in your condominium association’s policy. That’s where United Fire Group can help. To help cover these permanent improvements in the event of a loss, you can add our Additions and Alterations coverage to your condo policy for an additional cost.
  • Personal Replacement Cost Coverage: By choosing to add United Fire’s Personal Replacement Cost Coverage to your policy, your covered personal property items will be replaced for what it costs to purchase them new at the time of the claim.
  • Value Plus Endorsement: Though we can never replace the sentimental value of your most precious possessions, we can help make sure you don’t experience a complete loss. Our Value Plus Endorsement provides increased coverage limits for your personal property, such as jewelry, furs and silverware. There’s also extra coverage to help pay for losses associated with credit cards and fees charged by the fire department when responding to a fire call. In addition, Value Plus provides coverage not typically included in a condo policy, such as water back up and sump pump overflow, power interruption, and coverage for loss of food in a freezer or refrigerator caused by a power outage.
  • Personal Injury Coverage: Responsibility for damages awarded to others due to injuries, such as false arrest, libel, slander and invasion of privacy, may be paid for by purchasing United Fire’s Personal Injury Coverage.
  • Scheduled Personal Property Coverage: If the cost of your valuables, such as jewelry, silverware and fine art, exceeds the special limits of your condo owners coverage, you may choose to purchase additional coverage. Once purchased, this personalized coverage option protects almost anything and no deductible applies.
  • Earthquake Coverage: Most basic policies do not cover damage caused by earthquakes. By purchasing United Fire Group’s Earthquake Coverage you will be provided with the additional coverage you may need if an earthquake shakes your home.

Discounts

  • Multiple Policies: You can save money when you combine your insurance policies, such as your home and auto policies.
