High risk buildings pose insurance problems
Insurance costs rise for tenants in high risk apartments and mobile homes. The FAIR plan pools company funds to offer fire and extended coverage to tenants in such buildings, with premiums often 10 to 20 percent higher plus added surcharges. Officials urge tenants to inspect building safety, seek multiple insurers, and consider FAIR coverage when standard policies are denied.
