Are you positive you really want cheaper rates? If answered "Yes" you need to do all within your ability to find out as many steps as there are to cheaper rates. Following are several tips that will help you cut down your rate by as much as 50% if you use them the right way...
Install special fire and security gadgets that alert fire stations, police stations or other monitoring center. You will obtain considerable discounts apart from the fact that you'll feel safer that your home is being watched by competent professionals. This can reduce your rate by more than 25% depending on your insurance carrier.
Do you have smoke and fire detectors installed? Fix the right numbers of smoke and fire detectors for your size and kind of home if you intend to use this to get cheaper premiums. And, don't forget to change their batteries as stipulated by the manufacturers.
With these fires will be spotted early and stop more easily before they can cause any serious damage. Don't forget that whatever reduces the likelihood of a fire in your home reduces your premium.
Do you have a fire extinguisher or fire extinguishers in your house (depending on the number of fire sources you have in your home)? For example, your kitchen must have a good and functioning fire extinguisher. And do ensure that it is such that is proper for the kitchen in question.
Place them within easy reach and ensure they are working properly. This may seem insignificant but you'll get higher rates if you don't have them in your house.
You'll save if you get all your policies from the same insurer. This is known as a multi-policy discount and is available with all insurers. But you might make more savings with different insurance carriers than you'll make from a multi-policy discount.
A group homeowner's insurance policy will cost you less. You should already know if your employer offers such. You can check with associations you are part of because they might have obtained group discounts for home insurance.
I will, however, recommend that you still get and compare quotes from other insurers that your association may have no group discounts with. For several reasons you may be better off NOT buying from a particular group's insurer. So it really does pay to shop if you are after the best rates.
You are eligible for a retiree discount if you are a retired person. Ask your agent if they give such a discount.
Insurers who offer this discount know that burglars rarely go to houses where they know somebody is always around. Furthermore, Fires will be easily noticed and put off if someone is always at home.
You should obtain a good discount if you've being with your insurer for three years or more. However, I don't expect that you stick with an insurance company for that long simply because you are waiting to qualify for a loyalty discount.
Believe it or not, you will likely find an insurer that gives a more affordable home owners insurance or home renters insurance rate than what you're presently paying. That's, if you understand how to shop right. Make a list of companies that you've never obtained quotes from and get and compare quotes from them.
