How much does condo insurance cost in Texas?

The average cost of condo insurance in Texas is $1,007.

However, that is just an average. How much you pay will depend on the insurance company you choose, your own insurance needs and other factors, including where you live and where your condo is located.

It is also important to avoid skimping on insurance just to save money. Talk to someone in your condo unit owners association so you understand exactly what the condo’s master policy covers and what you are responsible for insuring, says David Wojtusik, vice president and director, private client and professional athlete group at the Insurance Office of America.

“[Talking to the association] is a critical step in the process of securing insurance that most unit owners overlook,” Wojtusik says. “Without it, they may end up heavily underinsured and at risk of losing money in the event of a loss.”

How to get the best cheap condo insurance in Texas

Shopping around for the right policy is the best way to get cheap condo insurance. Compare quotes from several providers to get the best deal.

Also, ask insurance companies about discounts they offer and whether you are eligible for them. Wojtusik says to tell the insurance agent about any protective features your unit has, such as central-station fire and burglar alarms, water shut-off systems, and fire protective devices.

Any or all of these features might help you get a discount on your coverage.

“Be sure to ask the condominium association or management company for a copy of the latest wind mitigation inspection, and provide this to the agent as well,” he says.

Wojtusik also recommends raising your deductible if you can afford to do so. This can lower your premium costs.
