There are a few things that help. The most useful is a comprehensive review of your policy and needs with your agent, because quotes for the same coverage on the same home can differ considerably, and comparing them only works if each is offering the same thing. Discounts are worth asking about, including placing your auto and home with the same carrier, and credits some carriers offer for security systems or protective devices. Raising your deductible is the other lever. A higher deductible lowers the premium, and the trade is that you carry more of a claim yourself. Ask us to show you the premium at each deductible the carrier offers so you can weigh the saving against what you would actually pay out of pocket at claim time.
