Ask ten condo owners in Horseshoe Bay, TX what their HOA’s master policy actually covers, and most won’t know the answer. Yet that answer determines exactly where your personal condo insurance needs to pick up. It all comes down to whether your building operates on a “walls-in” or “all-in” master policy structure.<\/p>\n
A walls-in master policy, sometimes called “bare walls,” covers only the building’s basic structure, the studs, load-bearing walls, and common areas. Everything inside your unit, flooring, cabinetry, fixtures, built-in appliances, and even drywall finishes, falls entirely on your individual policy to cover.<\/p>\n
An all-in, or “single entity,” master policy goes further, often covering original fixtures, flooring, and even some built-in features as they existed when the unit was first constructed. This shifts more responsibility onto the HOA’s policy, but it rarely covers upgrades or renovations an owner made after moving in.<\/p>\n
