Condo or Townhouse Insurance

Protect your investment and what's inside.

Condo and townhouse owners have special insurance needs, compared to traditional detached homes. For example, your strata only covers damage to the building, not your belongings inside your unit. That's why our expert insurance advisors take the time to get to know you and your investment better. We help you find the right coverage for your property and your belongings. Plus, BCAA Members save up to 20%†.
