Over the last couple of years, the number of people who run their businesses from home has ballooned. As a home-based business owner, the dilemma of whether you need commercial insurance for your business has been lingering in your mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do You Need Commercial Insurance if You Run a Home-Based Business? <\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Yes, you do since your homeowners’ or renter’s insurance policies don’t cover home-based businesses. Commercial property insurance protects your business’s property and physical assets against unfortunate events like theft, fires, and natural disasters. As a home-based business owner in Chandler, AZ, the commercial property insurance likely covers items like:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Signage<\/span><\/li>\n
  • The building that houses the business<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Inventory in stock<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Phone systems, computers, furniture, and other office equipment<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Vital company documents<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Accounting records<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Commercial property insurance is not enough if you want maximum protection for your home-based business. Here are some additional business coverages that we at San Marcos Insurance Group<\/strong> recommend:<\/span><\/p>\n

    • Professional liability insurance<\/strong> – to protect your business in the event of claims based on failure to deliver and negligence, especially if you are a consultant.<\/span><\/li>\n
