What Does Condo Insurance Cover in Nevada?

Your condo association’s master policy typically covers the exterior of the building and shared spaces, but not the inside of your home. A personal condo insurance policy (HO-6) is designed to cover your assets and protect you from liability.

Mercury condo insurance in Nevada can include:

  • Building property: This protects the interior of your condo, including walls, floors, fixtures, and any improvements or upgrades you’ve made.
  • Personal property: Your belongings, such as furniture, electronics, and clothing, are covered against theft, fire, and other specified perils.
  • Personal liability protection: This covers you if a guest is injured in your condo or if you accidentally cause damage to someone else’s property. It can help pay for medical bills and legal fees.
  • Additional living expenses: If your condo becomes uninhabitable due to a covered event like a fire, this helps pay for temporary living costs, such as hotel stays and meals.

Nevada’s dry conditions and mountain winds increase the risk of wildfires, while nearby regions may face flood or earthquake exposure. Standard HO-6 policies typically don’t include those events, so ask your Mercury agent about separate flood or earthquake insurance for full protection.

Optional Condo Coverages

For enhanced protection, Mercury offers several optional coverages you can add to your policy:

  • Loss assessment: This coverage is unique to condo insurance and helps pay your share of costs if your condo association levies an assessment on owners for major repairs to common areas that exceed the association’s policy limits.
  • Guest medical protection: Pays for minor medical expenses if a guest is accidentally injured on your property, regardless of who is at fault.
  • Workers’ comp coverage: If you employ household staff, such as a nanny or housekeeper, this coverage helps cover their medical expenses in the event of a job-related injury.
  • Condos rented to others: Provides liability and personal property protection if you rent out your condo.

What Factors Determine Your Condo Insurance Rate?

Several factors influence the cost of your Nevada condo insurance premium:

Location:

Premiums can be higher in areas with a greater risk of theft or natural disasters, like wildfires or floods.

Building construction:

The age and construction materials of your building affect your rate. Buildings made with fire-resistant materials may qualify for lower premiums.

Coverage amount:

The amount of coverage you select for your personal property and liability directly impacts your premium.

Deductible:

Choosing a higher deductible lowers your rate but increases out-of-pocket costs if you file a claim.

Claims history:

A history of filing frequent claims can lead to higher rates.

HOA master policy:

The extent of your homeowners association’s master policy determines how much individual coverage you need. A more comprehensive master policy can sometimes mean lower premiums for you.

While state law doesn’t mandate condo insurance, most mortgage lenders require it to protect their investment. Additionally, HOAs include a requirement for HO-6 insurance in their bylaws to ensure all unit owners are adequately covered.

What kind of insurance is needed for a condo in Nevada?

You’ll need a condo insurance policy, commonly known as an HO-6 policy. It’s specifically designed to cover the interior of your unit and your personal belongings, complementing your HOA’s master policy, which covers the building’s exterior and common areas.

A good rule of thumb is to purchase enough coverage to replace all of your personal belongings and to rebuild the interior of your condo if it were destroyed.
