Residential Strata Insurance
Rely on a reputable insurance broker
What is Commercial Building Insurance?
Residential strata insurance (also called body corporate insurance) is required by law for strata complexes, with the requirements differing by state across Australia. As strata insurance is often complicated, having a broker to assist with your needs is invaluable.
An experienced strata broker will be familiar with your local requirements, such as Queensland’s Body Corporate and Community Management Act 1997 and how they impact your insurance needs.
Residential strata insurance covers most of the risks that come with a strata complex like weather events, malicious damage, fire and injury in common areas.
What can be covered
- Rebuilding costs
- Public liability
- Damage to common areas/facilities
- Loss of rent for investors
- Temporary accommodation for owners occupiers
- Office bearers' liability
- Weather damage
- Misappropriation of funds (fidelity cover)
What may not be
- Inherent or latent defects
- Erosion or earth-moving
- Mould
- Deterioration, wear & tear
- Injury to, or caused by, animals in common areas
- Cyber-crime & data loss
- Murder or suicide on premises

Residential Strata claim example
Ken is one of the owners in his unit complex with five other residents. A pipe bursts inside the unit above Ken, with water coming through and damaging Ken’s unit.
Ken lodges a claim on his home contents policy, which responds to pay for his general contents – but his insurer tells him they won’t cover damage to his carpets or fixed cabinetry which have been destroyed as these are classified as “building.”
Ken then reaches out to the insurance broker who manages the strata insurance for his complex. They lodge the claim for building items for Ken which fills in the gaps to restore Ken’s unit.
Under this same claim, the insurer also restores damaged carpets in the common area protecting all the owners against this unexpected cost.
