Portfolio-Level Risk Assessment

As your portfolio grows, aggregate liability exposure increases. A lawsuit involving one property could threaten your entire portfolio. Comprehensive portfolio protection requires coordinated insurance strategy.

Umbrella Insurance for Portfolio Protection

Umbrella insurance provides excess liability coverage beyond underlying policies. It protects personal assets from catastrophic liability claims. Coverage typically starts at $1 million and is very affordable.

Bundling and Multi-Property Discounts

Insuring multiple properties with one company generates significant discounts. Bundling property insurance with auto and personal liability insurance provides additional savings.

Coordinating Different Property Types

Different property types need different insurance. Landlord insurance covers rentals. Builders risk covers renovation projects. Short-term rental insurance covers vacation properties. Coordinate these to avoid coverage gaps.
