I still recommend it, primarily for liability. I had a condo board change the deductible on their policy to 30k without telling the owners. Then my tenants alledgesly left a window open, bursting a pipe, damaging the three suites below.
Just like bizaro, my mortgage lender required both the condo board insurance and my own insurance as conditions for financing.
