What is Strata Insurance?

Most Strata Managers may only conduct strata insurance with 2 or 3 strata insurers because a majority of insurers will only offer their strata insurances to licensed insurance brokers so there is never true representation of the variety of insurers available.

 

With this in mind body corporate committees have a great deal of responsibility to those they represent within the property so it is imperative that they make well informed and researched decisions about which insurer they are entrusting their Strata insurance to

Why Ian Jones Insurance?

We like our experienced strata account brokers to offer to address the committee members at the relevant body corporate meeting to explain why we have chosen a particular insurer over others and what each insurer has offered. We won’t just bring in a renewal quote – we will bring ALL insurers terms and lay them out in a transparent and comprehensive manner and answer any questions the committee has.
