What those hazards mean for insurance

  • Separate policyFlood. Not covered by standard condo or homeowners policies — flood damage needs a separate NFIP or private flood policy (for both the association and your unit). FEMA FloodSmart
  • Separate policyEarthquake. Typically excluded from standard policies — earthquake coverage is a separate policy or endorsement with its own (often percentage) deductible. Colorado DOI buyer’s guide
  • Typically excludedEarth movement. Landslide and other earth movement are typically excluded from home policies — and usually not covered by earthquake policies either. Specialty coverage only. Oregon DFR
  • Special deductibleHurricane. Wind is usually a covered peril, but hurricane or named-storm claims often carry a separate deductible expressed as a percentage of the insured value — 1% to as high as 15%. NAIC
  • Special deductibleWind & hail. Usually covered, but many policies apply a separate wind/hail deductible — a flat amount or a percentage of the dwelling coverage. Virginia SCC guide

How policies typically treat these perils — not a coverage determination for this building. Check the association’s master policy and your own unit (HO-6) policy.

What condo owners pay — state average

  • Connecticut average: $420/yr for a condo unit-owner (HO-6) policy — 27% below the U.S. average of $572 (2022, the latest state-by-state study). NAIC
  • Flood is separate: standard condo policies don’t cover flood — NFIP flood policies in Connecticut average $1,520/yr across 31,015 policies in force (June 30, 2026). FEMA
