If you must attract big discounts on your Rhode Island homeowner insurance policy, then you must NOT fail to do certain things. Following are some of such things...
1. A group homeowner's insurance policy will cost you less. It is also good to check with associations you are part of if they have any group discount from any insurer.
I will, however, advise that you still get and compare quotes from other insurance companies that your association may have no group discounts with. This is because you might end up getting an insurer that is willing to take less than you'll even receive with your association's discount. So it actually does pay to do extensive comparison shopping if you intend to have the best rates.
2. If you're retired, you can enjoy more affordable rates with a retiree discount. Since not every company offers this discount, ask your agent before you sign your policy.
Insurers who offer this discount know that burglars rarely go to homes where they know someone is usually around. In addition, Fires can be easily noticed and put off if someone is always around.
3. Have you being with your home insurer for up to 3 years? Then ask for a loyalty discount. Most companies will give discounts once you keep your policy with them for three years and above. But in spite of the fact that you will qualify for a loyalty discount if you continue with one insurance provider for 3 years and more, don't make this decision just for that.
Believe it or not, you can almost always get an insurer that gives a far lower premium than what you are presently paying. The secret is doing thorough shopping. Look for insurance carriers that you've never got quotes from and obtain and compare quotes from them.
4. As you take these other steps to bring down your home insurance costs, here's what to do to get lower rates now. Visit trusted quotes sites and obtain quotes. Visit not less than five of such sites for the best results. It's free, quick and easy.
Make sure you give your correct details as you complete the questionnaires on each site. The last step is to simply pick the quote that represents the best price/value from the quotes return.
Here are my favorite quotes sites (highly recommended)...
