Insurance Tips for Homeowners

Save on Homeowners’ Insurance

1. Shop around. Check with several different insurance companies to get rate quotes.
2. Raise your deductible. If you increase your deductible, you’ll save on your premiums.
3. Buy your home and auto policies from the same company. Many companies will give a "multi-line" discount if you buy both from them.
4. Insure your home, not the land. While your home and its contents are at risk from fire, theft, windstorms, and other perils, the land is not. Don’t include the value of the land.
5. Improve security and safety. Items such as dead-bolt locks, burglar alarms, and smoke detectors can usually bring discounts. Your insurance company may also offer a discount if you install a sophisticated home-security system.
6. Check your policy annually. Review your policy every year and make necessary adjustments.
