In today’s episode of the Path to Passive podcast, Stephen Arita sits down with Jeff King, an insurance expert from Ramey King Insurance, to discuss why having the right insurance is crucial for anyone investing in multifamily real estate. Jeff talks about how solid coverage not only protects your property but also helps keep your investment on track for long-term success.
They dive into the basics of multifamily insurance—like why it's so important to work with an agent who understands commercial real estate, the different types of coverage you might need, and how banks use your insurance when deciding on loan approvals. Jeff also points out some common mistakes, such as overlooking the age of the roof or wiring, and explains the financial risks of underinsuring your property.
They also cover common claims in multifamily properties, from fires and weather damage to slip-and-fall accidents or tenant issues. Jeff explains how insurance rates can change over time, what loss runs are and how to use them, and why asset managers should regularly review their policies to ensure they’re still properly covered.
