Condominium Statutes by State

Last updated December 15, 2021

Condominiums are unique insurance exposures because the property is owned by separate parties; the units are owned by individuals, but the outer structure and common areas are owned by the association. Where and when the policies do and don’t intersect is often confusing. Likewise, states vary in their definitions of elements and requirements for which party is to insure what parts of the building. When are patios an individual units owners responsibility to insure, and when are patios the responsibility of the association? This chart answers many of those questions by providing state-by-state definitions and regulations needed in order to determine what part of the structure belongs to the unit owner, and what belongs to the association, and how the insurance policies interact.
