Running an apartment building comes with many risks to the property manager. Using a company like US Risks Insurance to cover your liabilities can help you manage your risk. Here are some common risks.
Tenant Discrimination
Tenant discrimination still happens unfortunately. Despite your best efforts or intentions, the tenant may file a claim stating they were discriminated against.
Employment Practices
An apartment complex requires several employees to run efficiently. There are people to run the office, maintain the grounds and handle maintenance requests. An employee who feels unfairly treated or fired without grounds can sue your business.
Business Income
Disasters happen causing destruction and loss of income. When a loss is covered, business income insurance helps cover those extra expenses and loss of rent the property experiences.
Builders Risk
Adding a new building to your apartment complex can increase your rental income but the construction phase comes with its own risks. A builders risk policy covers mistakes the contractors may make.
D&O Liability
If the apartment complex has a board of directors, directors and officers liability helps cover mistakes the board makes. Common mistakes include discrimination and fiduciary duty breaches.
