Ohio Real Estate E&O Insurance

Real Estate Errors & Omissions (E&O) in Ohio

Ohio E&O Requirements

Whether you run a residential real estate firm in Cincinnati, manage a Cleveland property management company, focus on commercial real estate, or help clients in finding their dream home in Columbus, one thing is the same: reliable real estate E&O coverage that provides peace of mind in this dynamic market.

While it’s not mandatory that Ohio real estate agents or agencies purchase errors and omissions insurance, many real estate franchises in Ohio require it. Even if you are an independent real estate firm, having a quality E&O policy is essential for your Ohio brokerage.

How are Professional Liability (E&O) Real Estate Policies Different?

Real estate professional liability coverage is known by many names: “real estate E&O”, “E and O,” “errors & omissions insurance” are the most common. While these are all names for the same coverage, when comparing E&O companies to each other, they are not all the same.

Many Ohio real estate E&O policies do not adequately cover some of the frequently encountered real estate E&O claims.

For instance, many policies offer limited or no coverage for contingent bodily injury and property damage claims, property management operations, fair housing or discrimination claims, claims on agent-owned property, regulatory complaints, and more.

Even if coverage is provided for some of these categories, most E&O insurance providers set lower “sublimits” for certain categories of claims. Many broker/owners do not realize they have reduced coverage limits for certain claims until their real estate agency is facing a lawsuit.
