Are you sure you really want more affordable rates? Then you must take the time to learn the steps that you'd have to take to achieve your goal. I've got enough suggestions to help most people save more than 50% on insurance...
Have special fire and security gadgets that alert fire stations, police stations or other monitoring center. Not only will you enjoy a huge discount, you will as well feel more secured bearing in mind that your house is always monitored. This can lower your rate by more than 25% depending on your insurance carrier.
Install smoke and fire detectors. If you have them in all the relevant areas of your home you'll get a discount.
With such detectors fires will be spotted on time and stop more easily before they can cause any real damage. Do NOT forget that anything that reduces the chances of a fire in your house lowers your rate.
Endeavour to have fire extinguishers at strategic points in your home. For instance, your kitchen must have a standard and functioning fire extinguisher. You must as well ensure that it is the best for your type and size of kitchen.
Have them within easy reach and ensure they are in good working condition. This may seem negligible but you'll get higher rates if you don't have them in your home.
You'll save if you get all your policies from the same insurance company. This is called a multi-policy discount and is given by all insurers. But you might make more savings with different insurance providers than you'll make from a multi-policy discount.
Get a group home owners insurance policy if within your reach because you'll attract a more affordable rate with it. You should already know if your employer gives such. Many associations have also negotiated discounts for their members with home insurers so ask if yours has such.
I will, nevertheless, recommend that you still get and compare quotes from other insurers that your association may have no group discounts with. You can get an insurance company that your association has no form of affiliations with that offers your profile a far cheaper rate. So it actually does pay to shop if you want the most affordable premiums.
You are eligible for lower rates once you are retired. Since not every insurer offers this discount, find out from your agent before you put pen to paper.
The reason for this discount is that people who are almost always at home are difficult to burglarize. Furthermore, Fires can be easily spotted and put off if someone is always at home.
Have you being with your home insurance provider for up to three years? Then make a demand for a loyalty discount. Most insurers will give discounts once you maintain your policy with them for three years and above. However, I do NOT expect that you stick with an insurance company for that long just because you are waiting to qualify for a loyalty discount.
I can almost bet that you can get rates that are considerably less than what you're paying now. That is, if you know how to shop correctly. Make a list of insurers that you've never obtained quotes from and obtain and compare quotes from them.
