To determine the proper amount of insurance we estimate the replacement cost (with current market values) of your personal belongings in your condo, as well as any betterments and improvements completed by you or the previous owner.

Enhanced Water Damage
Changing weather trends, bigger storms and more rain has now led water damage claims to the leading cause of all home insurance losses in Canada. Your standard home insurance policy does not fully protect you from losses due to water damage. Coverages can be purchased to cover:
-
Sewer Back-Up
Water damage to your home caused by the sudden and accidental back-up or escape of water or sewage through a sewer, septic system, sump pump or drain.

-
Identity Theft
With the increase and use of technology the exposure to identity theft has become prevalent. Your personal details are at risk when using ATM’s, point of sale machines or when someone steals your credit card.
The purpose of Identity Theft insurance is to help you recover from the losses associated with this theft, not to prevent you from being a victim.
Identity Theft reimburses you for expenses such as repairing your credit report, recovering lost wagers, long distance phone bills, mailing costs and even attorney fees depending on the policy selected.
