Protect Your Condo, Your Belongings & Your Liability — The Smart Way
If you own a condo in Santa Ana, your HOA insurance is NOT enough.
👉 You still need your own condo insurance policy (HO-6) to fully protect yourself.
Here’s everything you need to know 👇
🏠 What Does Condo Insurance Cover?
4
A standard HO-6 policy helps cover:
✅ Interior of Your Unit
- Walls, flooring, cabinets, fixtures
- “Walls-in” coverage that your HOA usually doesn’t include
✅ Personal Property
- Furniture, electronics, clothing
- Covered against fire, theft, vandalism, and more
✅ Personal Liability
- If someone is injured in your condo
- Covers legal fees and medical costs
✅ Loss of Use
- Pays for temporary housing if your unit becomes unlivable
✅ Loss Assessment (VERY IMPORTANT)
- Helps cover HOA special assessments
👉 Example: shared roof or building damage
⚠️ What Your HOA Insurance Does NOT Cover
Many condo owners assume they’re fully covered — they’re not.
👉 HOA policies typically cover:
- Exterior structure
- Common areas
👉 They usually do NOT cover:
- Your interior upgrades
- Your personal belongings
- Your liability
💰 How Much Is Condo Insurance in Santa Ana?
Typical cost:
- 👉 Around $40–$80 per month depending on coverage
