Florida Apartment Building & Landlord Insurance

Owning an apartment building in Florida means responsibility for the roof, the structure, the tenants in stairwells and parking lots, and the rent roll that has to keep running if a storm takes the property out of service for six weeks. We write multifamily property coverage including loss-of-rents and the specific lender wording Fannie, Freddie, and HUD demand — quoted against the carriers actually writing Florida apartment buildings right now.

Multifamily property owners across Florida operate buildings ranging from four-unit walkups in older Hollywood neighborhoods to garden-style complexes in Orlando's southwest growth corridor and twelve-unit infill projects along the I-4 spine. Florida First Insurance of Broward writes habitational property coverage for buildings of five units and up, working with carriers comfortable with concrete, frame, and joisted-masonry construction in hurricane-exposed territory.

An apartment-building policy typically bundles dwelling, premises liability, loss of rents, ordinance-or-law upgrades for older structures, and equipment-breakdown coverage. Owners financed through Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or HUD often need agreed-value settlement rather than ACV, terrorism endorsements, and the specific named-insured and mortgagee language the lender insists on. We handle the filings.

Habitational risks bind for owners in Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach in the southeast; Collier and Lee on the Gulf coast; Sarasota, Manatee, Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco around Tampa Bay; Polk and Orange across the I-4 corridor; Brevard and Volusia on the Space Coast; Marion, Alachua, and Seminole through North Central Florida; Duval at the northeast corner; and Leon and Escambia in the Panhandle.
