Errors & Omission Insurance

Goal: Purchase an Errors & Omissions insurance policy.

Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance, also known as Professional Liability Insurance, is a type of policy that provides coverage for businesses and professionals against claims of negligence or mistakes that result in financial loss or harm to a client or customer.

  • This type of insurance is particularly important for individuals and businesses that provide services or advice, such as lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers, and consultants.
  • It’s crucial to have a Professional Errors and Omissions Liability Policy for your LLC.
  • This policy protects you and your employees from any legal action that may arise while performing your duties.
  • It’s essential to have this policy in place to avoid any financial loss or legal complications.

One of the main reasons why customers should consider purchasing E&O insurance is that it helps protect them against potential financial losses due to errors or omissions in their professional work. Even the most skilled and experienced professionals can make mistakes, and these errors can sometimes have serious consequences for their clients. Without adequate insurance coverage, businesses and individuals may face significant financial losses or even bankruptcy if they are held liable for these mistakes.

Another reason why customers should consider purchasing E&O insurance is that it can help protect their professional reputation. If a customer or client suffers financial harm due to an error or omission on the part of a professional, they may be inclined to take legal action or leave negative reviews online. E&O insurance can help cover the costs of defending against these claims and can also provide resources for mitigating any damage to the professional’s reputation. This can be particularly important for small businesses and individuals who rely on their reputation to attract and retain clients.

The cost of this policy varies based on the volume of business you conduct and the area of real estate you specialize in. As a new start-up LLC, you can expect to pay around $500 yearly for this policy. However, the premium may increase as your business grows.

Investing in this policy is a wise decision, as it provides you with financial protection and peace of mind. Without this policy, you may be liable for any damages or legal fees resulting from a civil action against your LLC.

For purchasing an error & omission insurance policy, you have to

  • Research insurance providers that offer Professional Errors and Omissions Liability Policy for real estate businesses
  • Choose a policy that meets your needs and budget
  • Apply for the policy and provide any required information, such as your business information and history
  • Pay the premium and wait for the policy to be approved
