Renewal files and operational change

We insure the work described in your agreement.

We examine the services you provide under each management agreement. Leasing errors and rent administration raise different coverage needs, so we describe the actual duties in the submission and check the proposed professional-services wording.

We identify the insured interests.

We establish which entity owns the building and which provides management services. We then check those relationships against the proposed policies, including how crime cover treats funds held for an owner.

We read the exclusions and explain the choice.

We compare the terms as closely as the premiums. Our recommendation explains the effect of service exclusions, client-funds provisions, and reporting conditions. We follow up on unclear wording before asking you to choose between proposals.
