For townhouses, you should make sure your homeowners association carries appropriate federal flood insurance which protects you and you neighbors from rising water from a stream, river, ocean or canal. If a flood in your house is caused by sewer backup or a broken pipes, you need to make sure your personal homeowners insurance covers those problems. Also, ask your homeowners insurance company how to insure common walls of a townhouse in case your neighbor has a broken pipe or some other internal problem.

If a tree is partially over the property line on your neighbor's property who is responsible for potential damage from a rotting tree that is still standing?

The responsibility rests with the owner of the property on which the rotting tree is standing. However, the person whose property is damaged may have the burden of proving the tree owner knew it was a hazard (foreseeable versus merely potential) and that the damage was caused by negligence rather than an "act of God".

Are you responsible if someone borrows your car without permission and gets in an accident?

The owner's insurance will pay if he has collision coverage. It Doesn't matter who was driving. the owner will have to pay the collision deductible, unless he wants to press charges against his buddy for "stealing" the car in which case the owner will have to pay the Comprehensive deductible. If the owner has neither collision nor comprehensive, then the owner is out of luck. The buddy's (who borrowed without permission) insurance company is not responsible for anything. They were not insuring that vehicle only his liability (damage he causes to people and vehicles that he hits but is not occupying)
