AMA - Am I Over-insured or Under-insured...

Victor Menasce
About this episode

 Today’s question comes from Paul, who asks: I have a multi family apartment project that is currently up for renewal of its insurance policy. I have a quote for new insurance, but I’m having a difficult time, assessing whether the insurance being quoted is going to leave me over insured or under insured. I would like to have replacement cost insurance. How would I determine replacement cost for an apartment complex that is 40 years old. How do I determine the correct level of coverage?
