Vacant Buildings
Insurance companies know that,
without question, a vacant building
stands the greatest claims risk.
Without an individual closely monitoring a structure and its grounds on a day-to-day basis, any number of things can go wrong. To protect yourself against theft, vandalism, and attractive nuisance, it is crucial to invest in comprehensive insurance coverage for your vacant building.

Why Fenimore
What is the worst-case scenario?
Take your pick:
Hopeful property owners watch their empty structures turn into truly empty investments every single year. This is the sad truth. Because vacant buildings are often not closely monitored, small issues can turn into big problems very quickly. A burst pipe can be much more than a minor situation if there is no one on-premises to notice the problem and put out an alert for required, immediate maintenance. You need to know that your vacant building is covered, especially so when there’s no one keeping watch.
Many individuals dream of owning a vacation home, but what happens when it sits empty for months on end? Consider this: a New Jersey’s man’s life was turned upside down when a young child wandered into the backyard of his unattended shore home. Attracted by a swimming pool, the youth was injured in an accident on the property grounds. The family successfully sued the homeowner, who was hundreds of miles away at the time of the incident. His limited insurance policy denied the claim because the house was technically “vacant.”
