Why do I Need Landlords’ Building Insurance for a Commercial Property?

Business insurance is important for landlords. Many hazards can impact your buildings and your tenants’ lives and property. A business owners policy (BOP) covers damages from many types of incidents, and other policies can address additional risks. Having the right amount of business insurance can provide financial protection should the unexpected occur.

Anyone in the Residential Rental and Commercial Rental Industries Needs Landlord Commercial Property Insurance, Including:

• Apartment building owners
• Apartment leasing consultants
• Landlords
• Leasing agents
• Multi-family property managers
• Property managers

What are the Different Types of Landlord's Commercial Insurance?

Any reputable insurance company should offer a range of choices to help you find the best landlord insurance policies. At biBERK, we offer five different types of commercial landlord insurance and residential landlord insurance for small business owners like you. Depending on the location of your business and other factors, certain types might be better for you than others.

Workers' Compensation insurance

This insurance helps protect your business if an employee is injured, contracts an illness, or dies as a result of an incident on the job. It can cover medical costs, legal fees, and lost wages due to the injury.

Business Owners Policy

Also called property & liability insurance, a business owners policy (BOP), combines general liability insurance with coverage for your company’s property. You'll get protection for the building you own, space you lease, and any property needed to run your business, while also receiving coverage for things like business interruption resulting from a covered property damage claim. This can replace lost income, as well as cover other costs associated with getting your business back up and running after suffering property damage, such as the use of a temporary location. You can also tailor your BOP with add-ons including cyber, hired and non-owned auto liability, employment-related practices liability, and employee benefits liability.

Commercial Auto insurance

If your company owns or leases vehicles, this policy protects your business. This type of insurance can provide coverage for your legal fees and the medical costs of others if your employee is at fault in an accident. It can cover the cost of damages even if the vehicle is used for personal activities outside of its primary business use.

Cyber insurance

This coverage can be purchased as an add-on to a BOP, general liability, or professional liability policy. It helps cover costs related to system hacks or data security breaches in which sensitive information has been stolen and fraud has occurred or there is a reasonable expectation that it might occur.

Umbrella insurance

Every landlord building insurance policy you purchase has a maximum value that it will cover in the event of an incident. Umbrella insurance adds another layer of protection: it can cover costs that exceed the limit of another liability policy, subject to its own limit. Without it, you may be responsible for anything over your policy limit. Business liability suits can easily exceed the actual value of many small businesses, so we highly recommend an umbrella policy to protect your company.

What’s not Covered by Landlord Insurance?

While landlord insurance for commercial property owners and residential property owners covers many types of risks, there are certain things it may not cover, including:

• check

  Equipment maintenance and general wear and tear. For example, if the air conditioning unit at your property needs its annual maintenance, insurance typically will not cover that expense.  

• check

  Personal belongings of tenants. Your tenants’ personal possessions (clothing, electronics, etc.) generally are not covered by your landlord insurance policies. They’ll need to purchase their own renters insurance for that purpose. 

• check

  The property where you reside. Landlords’ commercial property insurance and residential property insurance is designed for non-owner-occupied properties. If you live in one part of a dwelling and rent out other sections of it, landlord insurance likely won’t provide coverage.
