Main areas where we insure properties in San Juan

San Juan is not a single real estate market; it is composed of multiple submarkets with very different risk profiles and property types. Because of this, property insurance needs vary significantly depending on the specific location within the municipality.

In areas such as Ocean Park, Isla Verde, and Miramar, the market is primarily made up of oceanfront condominiums, luxury apartments, and properties used for investment or short-term rentals.

In these areas, it is common to find:

  • High-value condominiums

  • Properties used for Airbnb and vacation rentals

  • Foreign and local investment properties

  • High reconstruction costs due to coastal location

Coastal and high-value areas

Urban and residential areas

In sectors such as Santurce, Hato Rey, and Río Piedras, the market is dominated by apartments, multifamily buildings, and residential or mixed-use properties.

Here it is common to see:

  • Long-term rental apartments

  • Multifamily properties

  • High-density urban housing

  • Commercial properties and mixed-use buildings

These areas often require policies tailored to construction type and property usage.

Historic and tourist area

In Old San Juan, properties have unique characteristics due to their historical and architectural value.

Here it is common to find:

  • Historic buildings and colonial-style homes

  • Properties used for tourism or short-term rentals

  • Older structures with specialized construction materials and techniques

  • High cultural and heritage value

These properties require insurance tailored to older construction types and non-standard materials, as well as appropriate coverage for tourist or rental use.
