Loss of Rental Income
Protection
When a covered peril damages your property and makes units uninhabitable, your rental income stops. Loss of Rental Income coverage (also called Fair Rental Value coverage) reimburses you for rent you can't collect during repairs. This is one of the most critical coverages apartment and multifamily owners need—yet many policies carry inadequate limits.
What Loss of Rental Income Covers
- Covers lost rent due to covered perils (fire, wind, vandalism, theft, etc.)
- Applies when units become uninhabitable per local housing codes
- Typical coverage: 20–25% of your dwelling coverage limit
- Helps cover mortgage payments, taxes, and maintenance during downtime
- Does not cover evictions or tenant non-payment
A fire damages two units in your 50-unit apartment complex. Repairs take 4 months. With Loss of Rental Income coverage at a $200,000 limit, you are reimbursed approximately $5,000 per month during the 4-month repair period ($20,000 total). This helps you maintain cash flow and meet mortgage and tax obligations even when those units are not generating income.

Why Professional Brokerage
Matters Now
2024–2025 Property Insurance Market Reality
- Commercial property premiums have increased multiple years in a row.
- Recent years have seen double-digit rate increases for many properties.
- Properties in coastal and catastrophe-prone areas often face the largest increases.
- Underwriters are scrutinizing valuations and risk details more closely than ever.
- Some carriers are exiting or restricting coverage in higher-risk markets.
What This Means for Property Owners
- Accurate valuations are more critical than ever; underinsured properties face significant exposure.
- Multiple carrier options are essential to avoid being locked into unfavorable terms.
- Documented loss-prevention measures can improve underwriting outcomes.
- Independent brokerage access to specialty markets can provide broader coverage and potential savings compared to single-carrier options.
HabRisk's market access and carrier relationships help you navigate this environment. We work with specialty programs and regional carriers that many brokers cannot access, providing broader options for challenging or unique risks.
What We'll Review During
Underwriting
When you work with HabRisk, we conduct a thorough underwriting review to help ensure your coverage is appropriate and competitively priced. Key areas include:
- Is your building's replacement cost value adequate?
- When was the last time the valuation was reviewed or updated?
- Does the valuation reflect current construction and material costs?
- Have recent improvements or renovations been included?
By reviewing these areas in detail, we help you avoid blind spots, identify potential coverage gaps, and align your insurance program with the real-world risks your properties face.
