Insurance at Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami: the binder, the windstorm question, and who insures what

Two policies cover every Florida condominium: the building’s and yours. At Waldorf Astoria Residences Miami, here is where one stops and the other starts, and why the date matters.

This page is a framework. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.

Two Policies, One Wall

Master policy and HO-6.

The association insures the structure and the common elements under a master policy paid through the budget. The owner insures the inside of the unit, the finishes, contents and liability under an HO-6 policy, bought separately. Where the line sits is in the declaration: in Florida it is usually the unfinished walls, which means your floors and your kitchen are yours to insure.

Windstorm And Flood

The Miami questions.

Windstorm is the premium that moves the budget; the association’s quote is in the first budget and its deductible is a percentage of value, not a fixed sum. Flood is a separate policy, required by lenders in a flood zone and sensible without one; the building’s elevation certificate says where it stands.

The Binder

Day of closing, not the week after.

A lender requires proof of insurance before funding; a cash buyer should want it for the same reason. The HO-6 binder is arranged two to three weeks before the closing date with the unit details, and it starts the day the deed records.

What To Ask

Three questions for the desk.

What does the master policy cover and what is its windstorm deductible? What is the building’s flood zone and elevation? Which agents have written HO-6 policies in this building? The desk holds the first budget and introduces an agent for the rest.

Insurance is the one cost that is never in the rendering.
