7 Sure-Fire ways of reducing your home insurance
premium by Bill Smith
Home security improvement:
All insurance companies will happily offer you a discount for
burglar alarms and smoke detectors. Homes with fire and burglar
alarms that communicate with a third party monitoring company
receive a higher discount on their insurance premiums.
When possible, choose a higher deductible:
To reduce your premium, it is best advised to increase the deductible
to the extent you can afford. Your home insurance premium will
fall by as much as 20% if you increase the deductible from $200
to $1000.
Multiple insurance – Same provider:
If you consolidate your home insurance and auto insurance with
one insurance company, expect a premium reduction between 10 –
15%. This also means you are making one payment for all your insurance
needs. Consolidate and win.
Discount for non-smokers:
Some home insurance companies will offer a non-smoker discount
to the tune of 15%. Check with your insurance company if they
offer a non-smokers discount.
How far is the fire station?
If you live more than 5 miles from the nearest fire station and
more than 1,000 feet from a fire hydrant, you can expect a higher
premium. Also if you live in the country, you will probably pay
higher insurance rate than if you were living in the city.
Type of construction:
The construction type of your home also plays an important role
in determining your insurance premium. A wood frame home will
cost more to insure than the one built mostly of concrete.
Claims free record and renewal discounts:
If you have not had a claim under your current home owners policy
for the past 3-5 years, you will get a 15% discount on your premium.
Expect additional discount if your policy has been in force with
the same insurance company for 3 years or more.
Conclusion:
I am hopeful you have gained preliminary knowledge on the subject
of home insurance premiums. With these helpful tips you will be
able to understand and demand discounts on your home insurance
premiums. Good Luck!
