Condominium losses are rarely straightforward. When a fire, flood or other major loss occurs, adjusters are often left
sorting through a web of competing obligations involving the condominium corporation, the unit owner, tenants,
insurers, property managers and contractors.
In this webinar, RMC lawyers examines the legal and insurance issues that arise in condominium claims. Using real-world examples, our presenters will explain who is responsible for what, where coverage begins and ends, and how to
avoid the common pitfalls that can delay claims and increase costs.
Topics include:
- The respective responsibilities of the condominium corporation, unit owners, tenants and property managers
- Standard unit definitions and why they matter
- Betterments and improvements: who pays to replace them?
- Deductibles, chargebacks and when unit owners may be responsible
- Fire losses and other common condominium claims
- Determining what belongs to the corporation versus the unit owner
Whether you regularly handle condominium claims or only encounter them occasionally, this webinar will provide
practical guidance to help you identify the key issues early, determine the appropriate parties, and move claims toward timely resolution.
