Florida Condo Insurance (HO-6): Protect Your Unit & Belongings
Your condo association's master policy typically protects the building's structure and common areas, but it often stops at your unit's four walls - an HO-6 condo policy is built to cover the interior, your personal belongings, and your personal liability from there.
What Condo Insurance Florida Owners Need to Know
Condo insurance Florida unit owners rely on is typically written as an HO-6 policy, designed to cover what a condo association’s master policy usually leaves out. The master policy generally protects the building’s exterior and shared areas like the pool or lobby, while your HO-6 policy provides condo walls-in coverage for the interior of your unit, your belongings, and your personal liability.
How much your HO-6 covers depends on your association’s master policy. Some Florida associations carry a bare walls policy, leaving cabinets, flooring, and built-in fixtures to the owner, while others cover more of the unit’s original finishes. It’s worth reviewing your declarations page before assuming you know what’s covered.
Florida condo owners should also consider loss assessment coverage. When a covered loss, like storm damage to a shared roof, exceeds what the master policy pays, the association can bill unit owners directly. Coverage included in an HO-6 policy can help offset that cost.
As an independent agency, we compare condo coverage across carriers including Heritage, People’s Trust, and Safeco. Our homeowners insurance page explains how HO-6 differs from HO-3, and our flood insurance page covers what standard condo policies exclude.

Condo Insurance for Florida Condo Owners
We work with condo owners throughout Tallahassee and Leon County, from first-time buyers moving into their first unit to retirees downsizing from a single-family home into condo living.

Because we’re independent, we compare Florida condominium insurance options across multiple carriers rather than presenting a single company’s policy, and we help you understand exactly where your association’s coverage ends and yours begins.

Condo Insurance FAQs
What does condo insurance cover that my HOA master policy doesn't?
A condo association’s master policy generally covers the building’s structure and common areas, but it often stops at your unit’s interior. An HO-6 condo insurance policy typically covers your unit’s interior, personal belongings, and personal liability, the parts a master policy usually doesn’t reach.
Do I need condo insurance if my building has a master policy?
Most mortgage lenders require it, and even without a lender requirement, a master policy rarely covers your personal belongings, interior finishes, or personal liability. An HO-6 policy is designed to fill that specific gap.
What is HO-6 insurance Florida condo owners need to carry?
HO-6 is the standard insurance industry term for a condo unit owner’s policy. It typically covers the interior of your unit, your personal property, personal liability, and loss of use if you can’t live there after a covered loss.
How much condo insurance do I need in Florida?
The right amount depends on your unit’s finishes, the value of your belongings, and how your association’s master policy is written. We can walk through those details together during a free coverage review, without recommending a specific limit before knowing your situation.
Can I bundle condo and auto insurance?
Many of the carriers we represent offer bundling discounts when you combine condo and auto coverage, though availability depends on the carrier and your eligibility. We can check bundling options for you as part of your free quote.
