Question
Is it possible to get loss assessment coverage on a HO-3 policy?
Due to the high cost of the master policy, the HOA will no longer insure the walls out coverage on individual units. I received a quote for a homeowners policy but was told I could not add Special Assessment coverage. The HOA will still insure the common areas including the clubhouse. If there is a loss to these areas it is feasible the owners will be charged a special assessment. What are my choices to maximize any losses.
