We offer homeowners and renters insurance for your dwelling or condominium and its contents in Mexico.

A deductible of 1% of value of the property applies for basic coverage. For earthquake and volcanic eruption a deductible and coinsurance applies which varies by location of property.

PALAPA STYLE STRUCTURES CANNOT BE INSURED
without the express written consent of Seguros Comercial America.

If you have DETACHED outbuildings on your premises such as a garage, or storage unit (bodega), these outbuildings and/or their contents are automatically covered at no additional cost up to an amount equal to 5% of the amount of insurance you carry on your dwelling or contents with the exception of "Palapa" structures.

If you have outbuildings on your property with Palapa type construction an endorsement MUST be issued excluding Coverage for outbuildings and their contents. This endorsement will then preserve your ability to insure your main dwelling with no Palapa type construction. (Outbuildings excluded for coverage must be DETACHED from main dwelling.)
Definition of Palapa:

"Palapa" means "thatched covered structure" of any shape or size constructed of natural palm leaf.
