Commercial Property FAQs
Is commercial property insurance required?
While not required by law, lenders and landlords may require you to carry it. Even if not mandatory, it’s strongly recommended for any business with physical assets.
What’s the difference between commercial and homeowners insurance?
Commercial property insurance is built for business risks—including equipment, inventory, business interruption, and tenant improvements. Homeowners insurance won’t cover business use of a space.
Does it cover theft or vandalism?
Yes—most commercial property policies include protection for theft, burglary, and vandalism, in addition to fire, storm damage, and more.
What if I lease my space?
We’ll help you insure what’s yours—like tools, furniture, and build-outs—while also reviewing lease terms to identify any gaps.
Is equipment covered under property insurance?
Stationary equipment, fixtures, and even expensive electronics can be covered. For portable tools and jobsite gear, we recommend adding inland marine coverage.
Can I combine this with liability or business interruption coverage?
Absolutely. Many businesses choose to combine property and liability coverage in a BOP. We’ll tailor your policy to cover what matters—without overpaying for what doesn’t.
