What does condo insurance (HO-6) cover that the association's master policy doesn't?

It depends on the master policy type, but HO-6 coverage typically fills the gap for interior finishes, built-in fixtures, personal belongings, and liability inside your unit — review your association's specific master policy and bylaws to see exactly where its coverage ends.

What is loss assessment coverage?

It's an optional coverage that reimburses you for your share of a special assessment the condo association levies on all owners after a large covered loss to the building or common areas — worth discussing with your carrier if your association has assessed owners before.
