Builders risk insurance is essential protection for construction projects, but it is complex and often misunderstood. This isn't surprising. There are no standardized policy forms for builders risk and coverage varies from insurer to insurer and project to project. If properly structured, however, a builders risk policy is the backbone for a successful risk management program. This article explores builders risk coverage and its nuances along with key considerations to keep in mind when purchasing a policy. |
What do you get when you cross a barn and a condominium? A barndominium, of course! It’s a fun word, but what does it refer to exactly? In a broad sense, barndominiums are usually metal buildings with living quarters and some kind of workspace or shop with an agricultural purpose. Originally, the term referred to old existing buildings that were retrofitted to include said living space. However, definitions and construction methods are changing as this housing trend grows in the Texas Hill Country and in rural areas nationwide. Let’s take a closer look at the specifics and see why barndominiums can be a great alternative to traditional housing.
