I do a lot of Condo Associations and I'm having more and more trouble with having companies having to cover such a big property amount in say an acres or 2 of land mass.2. have no idea3. not sure about regulatory barriers because there have been plans done through employers or associations where they'll give a specific discount, let's say 5% overall to the employees they can write but that being said those clients typically don't live right next to each other, have the same age/style/value of home and they still have underwriting guidelines they have to go through that can generate rate or every deny the coverage.That help at all?
