My Rental Condo Was Damaged in the Hurricane, but Insurance Won’t Pay Loss of Rental Income

Many Fort Lauderdale residents own condos that they rent out to tourists. When a hurricane causes water or other damage, the property owner not only suffers a loss to the actual property, but to potential income, as well. Because substantial water and structural damage from a storm can take a good amount of time to repair, the loss of income can be substantial. Most property owners insure against loss of rental income, but insurance companies will sometimes quibble over claims as to how much the actual income would have been if the water damage had not occurred.

Insurance companies require detailed information from owners to substantiate claims for loss of income. This documentation can include previous tax returns, income and expense reports, or monthly income of the unit. They will sometimes try to argue against claims by showing that it would not have been possible to rent the condo even if the water or other damage had not occurred.
