Condo Insurance
Condo Insurance for Springboro & Southwest Ohio
Your HOA covers the building. We cover everything inside it — your unit, your belongings, and your liability.
Why It Matters
Your HOA Policy Stops at Your Front Door
Your HOA’s master policy covers the building exterior and shared spaces — but not what’s inside your unit. Condo insurance, also called HO-6 insurance, fills that gap. It protects your walls, floors, cabinets, appliances, personal belongings, and your personal liability.

Coverage Breakdown
What Your Condo Policy Covers
HO-6 policies are built around the gaps your HOA leaves behind. Here’s what each coverage type protects.
Interior Structure
Walls, flooring, cabinets, and built-ins inside your unit — where your HOA coverage ends.
Personal Property
Furniture, electronics, clothing, and appliances — covered against theft, fire, and storm damage.
Personal Liability
Covers legal costs if someone is injured in your unit or you cause damage to a neighboring unit.
Loss of Use
Hotel stays and meal costs if your condo becomes unlivable after a covered loss.
Loss Assessment
Your share of HOA-wide damages or lawsuits that exceed the master policy limits.
Medical Payments
Minor medical bills for guests injured in your unit regardless of who is at fault.
Know Your Limits
What Condo Insurance Doesn't Cover
Understanding exclusions is just as important as knowing what’s covered. These items require separate policies or endorsements.
Flood Damage — Standard HO-6 policies exclude flood entirely. If your condo is near a creek or low-lying area, ask us about NFIP or private flood coverage.
Earthquake — Not covered by default. Ohio has low seismic risk but endorsements are available if you want the protection.
Pest and Mold Damage — Infestations and mold remediation are typically excluded. Prevention and early detection are your best defense.
Previous Owner Improvements — Unit upgrades made before you purchased — new flooring, custom cabinetry — may not be covered unless you schedule them specifically.

Ways to Lower Your Condo Insurance Premium
Most condo owners qualify for at least one of these discounts. Ask us which ones apply to your situation.
Bundle Condo + Auto — Combining policies with Bucklew Insurance is typically the largest single discount available — often 15–25% off both policies.
Safety Features — Monitored smoke alarms, deadbolts, and water leak detection devices all qualify for premium reductions.
Higher Deductible — Raising your deductible from $500 to $1,000 can meaningfully lower your annual premium.
Good Credit — Ohio insurers use a credit-based insurance score. Maintaining good credit is one of the most impactful ways to keep premiums low.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does condo insurance cover that my HOA policy doesn't?
Your HOA’s master policy generally covers the building and common areas, while your condo policy, often called an HO-6 policy, helps cover your personal belongings, personal liability and portions of your unit that you’re responsible for. Exactly where the HOA’s coverage ends and yours begins depends on the association’s master policy and bylaws. We can help you review both so you know what needs to be covered.
Is condo insurance required in Ohio?
Ohio law does not generally require condo owners to carry an HO-6 policy, but your mortgage lender or condo association may require coverage. Even when it isn’t required, condo insurance can help protect your belongings, personal liability and the portions of your unit that aren’t covered by the HOA’s master policy.
What is loss assessment coverage?
Loss assessment coverage may help pay your share of certain covered losses or liability claims involving property collectively owned by your condo association. For example, if a covered loss exceeds the HOA master policy’s available coverage and owners are assessed a portion of the cost, your HO-6 policy may provide some protection. Coverage depends on the reason for the assessment, your policy terms and your coverage limit.
What's the difference between HO-3 and HO-6 insurance?
An HO-3 policy is commonly used for a traditional single-family home and generally covers the home’s structure as well as personal property and liability. An HO-6 policy is designed for condo owners and works alongside the condo association’s master policy. It typically covers your belongings, personal liability and the parts of your unit you’re responsible for insuring.
Can I get condo insurance if I rent out my unit?
Yes, but renting your condo to tenants can change the type of coverage you need. A standard owner-occupied HO-6 policy may not be appropriate for a condo used as a rental property. Tell us how the unit will be occupied and we’ll help determine the appropriate coverage for the condo, your liability and any property you keep there.
How much does condo insurance cost in Springboro?
Condo insurance costs in Springboro vary based on the value of your belongings and interior improvements, the coverage limits you select, your deductible, claims history and other rating factors. Your condo association’s master policy can also affect the coverage you need. We can review your situation and provide a quote based on your specific unit.
Can I bundle condo and auto insurance for a discount?
Yes. Many insurers offer a multi-policy discount when you insure your condo and vehicles with the same company. The amount you save varies by insurer and household, so we’ll compare the available discounts and coverage when preparing your quote.
How can I lower my condo insurance premium?
Depending on the insurer, you may be able to lower your condo insurance premium by bundling policies, choosing a higher deductible, installing qualifying protective devices and taking advantage of available discounts. We can review the options with you and help you balance the premium savings against the coverage and out-of-pocket costs that are right for you.
How much condo insurance coverage do I need?
The amount of condo insurance you need depends partly on what your HOA’s master policy covers. You’ll also want enough coverage for your personal belongings, the portions of the unit you’re responsible for, personal liability and additional living expenses after a covered loss. Reviewing your association’s master policy and bylaws is one of the best places to start. We can help you identify where the HOA’s coverage ends and what your individual policy should protect.
