Where would your business be without its physical assets? Many small businesses overlook the importance of commercial property insurance, especially if they operate in a rented office or work from home. Commercial property insurance is essential for any business that uses a physical building, whether to do business or simply to store inventory. This protection includes coverage for the physical building and its assets and outdoor amenities against common perils, such as natural weather events such as fire, wind, and hail, and activities such as theft and vandalism.
