Safeguard Public Adjusters works with a variety of HOAs for residential neighborhoods, apartments and condos and are experienced in the oftentimes complex field of HOA and Condo Association insurance claims. HOA and Condo Association claims can often be the most challenging due to the sole fact that in the event of damage, there is usually some dispute from both condo owners and the condo association as to who is responsible for what. What might start as a small leak inside one apartment can turn in to water damage throughout several apartments in a short amount of time if not handled properly, which of course can complicate who exactly is the responsible party.

Even though there are laws on the books in the State of Florida governing exactly who is responsible for what, these laws are complex and have been rewritten more than 20 times over the years. Given the complexities along with the constant changes, interpretation of these laws is never simple, so both sides will always attempt to interpret in their own favor.

Using A Public Adjuster For Your HOA Claim

HOA claims can be complex claims to adjust as these claims typically involve a lot more than just a standard evaluation of damages and loss. The communal bylaws, state laws, and exact designation of the property, whether condo association or HOA, have just as much to do with how the damages are assessed and the claim is filed.

In addition, when damage occurs to multiple units that are managed by a homeowner’s association, you must adjust not only for the direct losses but also ensure the community owners agree on a repair plan and necessary repair protocol.

The HOA Claims Process

To account for these situations and many others during HOA insurance claims and condo association insurance claims, it is crucial that a public adjuster is brought in to the claims process as soon as it is apparent that there is damage. A certified public adjuster will not only be able to help sort through every aspect of the policy and what is covered but will also ensure the damage is fully documented and the claim is handled properly, resolving many of the typical headaches and complications that come with an HOA insurance claim or condo association insurance claim.
