Program Management

Asset managers have a wide variety of resources at their fingertips to make their jobs easier. Checklists, inspection forms and training materials can be accessed immediately to help with the management of properties.
IMA works closely with clients to design comprehensive plans to prevent and mitigate loss for real estate agencies. We start by analyzing past losses, reviewing written policies and procedures, conducting on-site risk assessments and holding meetings with management and staff. Custom service plans then help property owners and management achieve their risk management goals.

At IMA we don’t just process claims, we actively manage them. On average, 60 to 70 percent of your insurance dollars can be allocated to pay claims. The IMA claim management approach can help you reduce these costs. Prompt reporting, early intervention, aggressive investigation, timely settlement, and excellent communication are the foundation of our claim management success.

- Large deductible and self insured retention plans

- Rent-a-captive insurance companies
