I attended a NARPM conference this week, and there was a brief mention of a rider that can be added to landlords comp policy that, in the event of a loss, if the city code people require you to upgrade, for example, your electrical service to current code, this will cover the added expense, vs. " replacement" cost which would not.

I haven't had time to check with our agent yet...anybody familiar with this? cost?

Seems like it could be worthwhile on older properties.

I'm guessing it would be more expensive on older properties. That would be a fantastic thing to have.

If I had something like that I would be tempted to go to the code office and tell them to make me upgrade my property :-)

I've had this clause in most of the insurance policies I've had.

I missed the " in the event of a loss" part. I'll have to look over my forms to see if I have that one on my properties.
