Properties classified as manufacturing or farms are not eligible for coverage.  One to four family non-owner-occupied residential properties must apply for the Dwelling Property Program.

 

LIMITS

We offer coverage on an Actual Cash Value basis - not Replacement Cost. We suggest the limit requested be the Actual Cash Value of the Building (not lot/land) plus an additional sum for Debris Removal / Site Restoration in the event of a total loss.  We suggest the limit requested for Business Personal Property be based on the actual cash value of the property plus an additional sum for Debris Removal in the event of a total loss.  For properties under rehabilitation, we suggest a limit which includes the cost of the rehab to the property.

The maximum limit on the Building and Business Personal Property coverages combined is $500,000.

 

BASIC POLICY FORM, COVERAGES, AND LOSS SETTLEMENT PROVISION.

The Plan uses the Insurance Services Office Standard Property Policy Form - CP 00 99.  The producer may request copies of the policy forms and endorsements in use by the Plan.  We may add limiting endorsements to the policy.  Contact us with any questions.

Policy causes of loss (subject to the provisions of the policy):
bullet

Fire, lightning, and explosion, required.

bullet

Extended coverage perils (wind, hail, explosion, riot, aircraft, vehicles, smoke), if requested.

bullet

Vandalism or malicious mischief, if requested.

The policy provides no Business Liability or Medical Payments to Others coverages.  We do not offer these coverages in the Commercial Property Program.

Losses are primarily adjusted on an actual cash value basis (subject to the provisions of the policy).

The statements above provide only a brief description of the coverages provided.  Please review the policy for exact  information on coverage, conditions, exclusions, and other policy provisions.

 

DEDUCTIBLES.

The basic deductible is $500.  We require a minimum $1000 deductible when the coverage limit reaches $150,000 and a $2500 deductible when the coverage limit reaches $250,000.  Deductibles of $5,000, $10,000, and $25,000 are available.  We will require an higher deductible if the customer has an active claim history.  The producer may wish to suggest a higher deductible to customers as increased deductibles lower premiums.

 

COMMERCIAL CRIME PROGRAM.

The Wisconsin Insurance Plan offers a Commercial Crime Program separate from the Commercial Property Program.  The Crime Program has its own application.  We must survey the property to determine if it is acceptable for coverage.  Therefore, we suggest application be made at least 45 - 60 days before coverage is needed.

Limit:  Maximum of $15,000 combined for all coverages selected.

Coverages offered (subject to the provisions of the policy):

bullet

Robbery and Safe Burglary - Property Other than Money and Securities.

bullet

Robbery and Safe Burglary - Money and Securities.
