Professional Liability Insurance for Property Managers

Property Management Errors & Omissions Insurance

Property Management Professional Liability Insurance (also known as Property Manager Errors & Omissions Insurance, or Property Management E&O) protects all types of property management professionals if a client alleges that you were professionally negligent, failed to perform professional duties, or in the case of the failure of your work to perform as promised in your contract.

Property Management Professional Liability Insurance Protects Your Business

The high cost of a legal defense could put your property management firm out of business. Your company's survival and your personal financial security depend upon protecting yourself against the impact of a lawsuit.

Almost any firm or individual that improperly performs services can cause a client to suffer an economic loss - and mounting a defense is expensive. The impact of even a baseless claim can be devastating. Would your company have the resources and expertise to defend against such a claim? Request A Quote

Why Do I Need Property Manager Professional Liability Insurance?

Mistakes Happen. Even the most skilled professionals are likely to make an error at some point. From catastrophic equipment failures to human oversights that result in personal injury, many incidents can result in a lawsuit.

You Can't Be All Places At Once. As your firm becomes more successful, you may not be able to personally handle every aspect of a property management job. Errors & Omissions coverage insures not only your mistakes, but also the mistakes of the employees and independent contractors you hire. Request A Quote

Doesn't My General Liability Insurance Provide the Same Protection?

Errors and Omissions insurance coverage is not provided by a Commercial General Liability policy. Commercial General Liability does NOT provide coverage for errors, contract performance disputes or any other Professional Liability issues. Property management consultants and companies who have General Liability without Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions) coverage are taking a serious risk. It's like a doctor practicing medicine without Malpractice Insurance. Request A Quote
