Lessors Risk & Building Owners

Owning the building is one risk. Renting it out is another. We place lessors risk programs that protect the property, your liability as the owner, and the income the building was supposed to generate.

Why it’s different

If you own a building and rent it to tenants, your insurance needs are different from a building you occupy yourself. A standard property policy may exclude lessor liability, ignore loss of rents when a tenant has to vacate, or leave you exposed when an injury happens in a common area or to someone visiting your tenant. The lease shifts some risk to the tenant — but never all of it.

Domham Insurance Group structures lessors risk programs around the building, the tenants, and how the lease actually works. We coordinate property, liability, loss of rents, ordinance & law, and the specialty coverages owners need — from a single retail strip to a mixed-use portfolio — to keep the building covered and the rent rolling.

Lessors Risk & Building Owners
Coverage we place

Protection tuned to your operation

A starting point — we tailor every program to how your business actually runs.

Building Property

Replacement cost on the structure, with the endorsements that matter when codes change after a loss.

Lessor Liability

Owner-side liability for injury or damage tied to the premises — common-area slips, leaks, and structural exposure.

Loss of Rents

Continued income when a covered loss makes the space untenantable for your tenants.

Ordinance & Law

Cost to bring the building up to current code during repair — often a major gap on basic policies.

Equipment Breakdown

HVAC, boilers, elevators, and electrical systems that fail and shut tenants down.

Sign & Awning Coverage

Exterior signage and awnings, often excluded from standard property forms.

Water Damage & Backup

Sewer backup and water-related losses, a frequent claim in older commercial structures.

Umbrella / Excess

Higher limits to satisfy lender and lease requirements.
