In a typical situation like yours this is how it should have happened:

Condo corp pays - All damages to get repaired. 30k deductible out of condo corp.
Condo owner insurance pays - 30k deductible (pay back condo corp) out of liability insurance plus is subrogated for the rest of the damage since home owner is at fault (since tenant can't be found). your 20k content insurance would cover damages to any flooring/things condo owner owns.
Condo tenant insurance - Would be subrogated to recoup any funds if possible in this situation since it would be under their liability portion again normally 1mil in coverage.

Unless I am missing some key piece of information and you are only purchasing 20k of liability insurance which would be very strange.
This. You should probably have a million in liability or something.
