What makes Nevada different
Property coverage in Nevada should account for extreme heat, wildfire and earthquake risk in northern Nevada. Resort and casino landlords on the Las Vegas Strip often require higher limits and specific additional insured wording from salon tenants.
Compare deductibles (including any separate wind, hail or named-storm deductible), whether equipment breakdown is included, and how long business income coverage waits before it starts.
