Insurance Solutions
Under certain policies, Vacant Property Insurance can provide protection if your building goes unoccupied for as little as four days. It also protects against liabilities in the event someone is injured on your property and sues for damages. In some cases, it is required when a property owner dies and the property goes to an estate sale. It may also be a viable option if the property is in the process of being sold or if it is under construction and is uninhabitable.
In addition to purchasing coverage for a vacant building, take the
following actions:
- Regularly inspect it for damage or threats of damage
- Seal off windows and letterboxes
- Install alarm systems that are triggered by intruders, fires or floods
