So glad you asked. We have heard the frustrations of association managers and set about the business of solving them. Here are a few of the ways we make the application process faster and easier for you:
How does Blue Lime's quoting save me time?
- One application. You need more hours in your day. We get it. With Blue Lime you don’t have to fill out numerous applications. There is one application to fill out.
- No more paper. Our application is online, fast, and tree friendly. You can even sign it online.
- An application with a brain. Our intuitive application doesn’t ask you questions you don’t need to answer. We don’t waste your time.
How long does it take to get a quote?
Simple. Once we have a completed application, this is what you can expect:
- For New Business – Single Family Associations: 24 hours
- Condo and Mid/High Rise Associations: 72 hours
(for properties under 50 million of total insurable value) - For renewals – Single Family: 30 days or more
- Condo and Mid/High Rise: 15 days
Quoting timeframes are approximate based on our normal operating standards.
What happens when I need to file a claim?
With Blue Lime you don’t get pawned off onto someone at the insurance carrier’s office when a claim occurs. We are here to guide you and your board through the process.
When you have a claim our self service portal walks you through the process collecting all of the information we will need to get the process rolling. We regularly update the status of claims so you and your board can stay informed.
You can export a claims status report for your board so they stay updated and know you are on top of it. When the board hears nothing, the assumption is often that there isn’t any work being done. We work to make sure that isn’t the case.
We work hard to get you a decision on coverage quickly when it comes to property claims. You aren’t left to handle this on your own. We know that each day the gate, the wall or the entry monument isn’t fixed is a day you are going to get more phone calls.
On average, covered property claims are paid in 12 days.
Process owners' mortgage company COI requests? Piece of cake.
When an owner or owner’s mortgage company contacts you to request a certificate of insurance we make the process simple and easy for you.
- Self Service: You can use our self service portal to enter the owner’s mortgage information and create a COI right away. Each year when the policy renews we will mail all certificate holders an update. This cuts down on the annual phone calls to you requesting an update.
- Email: If you prefer, you can simply email us the request and we will handle it from there. Through our software you’ll be able to see who we have issued certificates to.
I’m drowning in paper! Will you be burying me with more?
Paper is so 1999. But, for some reason most insurance companies and insurance agents still love it. NOT US! We are living in today’s world (although some may argue this point when it comes to our super cool retro sunglasses).
- Our Smart Application. It’s online. We’ve gotten rid of the old paper application.
- Sign online. Whether it is signing an application or a bind order, you or your board can do it electronically. This makes it easy for you to ask a board member to sign without having to deal with printing out the documents, signing them, scanning them, etc.
