You Can Get The Best Insurance Coverage For Your Money.

By Susan Tanner

What is insurance? Insurance is the transfer of risk to a company you give your hard earned money to out of your pocket each month. With the way today's economy is, we need to find ways to get the best bang for our buck. I will give you a few tips on how to get the lowest rates possible.

Auto insurance is mandatory in several states, and is often an unavoidable part of driving, so it's important to do your research to get the best quote for you. One good way to find a good insurance company is by asking people like you, such as family and friends, where they buy their automobile insurance. Make sure you check with people who are your age and have similar driving history.

Searching the Internet is another way to get an idea as to how much insurence is. Some companies even offer a comparison of other companies rates so you can see where you would save the most money. The best part is, if you sign up with an company via the Internet as to with someone in the office or over the phone, that company may offer a discount for doing so. This saves that company money in man hours and even paper so they pass that savings on to you.

Look at the coverages you need by state law and go from there. Some of us may only need what is required by the state, but if you do not own your vehicle and there is a lien holder, the price will be higher because you will be required to carry comprehensive and collision coverage with deductibles no greater then 500 in most cases. If you don't own your vehicle, talk it over with your lien holder. You may be able to reduce or eliminate their requirement for collision coverage.

The most important thing to do is ASK where you can save more money. Remember, these companies are in the business of making money. When dealing with auto insurance, the best thing you can do is ask if there are any other discounts that you may qualify for. Some may offer a discount for auto clubs, your highest level of education, even if you have a minor child in the household.

There are other ways to find and keep cheap auto insurance. One of the most important is to be a safe driver. Keeping a clean driving history will make sure you get the rates that you deserve. With each ticket and accident, you are asking to have your rates raised. Remember, sometimes rates get raised if the accident was not your fault.

Choose your vehicles carefully. The safer your car or truck, and even the less expensive your vehicle is, will help with your rate quotes. The more the vehicle cost, the more it will cost to insure and the higher your rate will be.

So remember when shopping know what you need, do your research, ask questions, be a safe driver and take your time. Just taking the time to follow these steps will insure that you keep the most accurate and cheapest rates.
