Published in April 17, 2014 comments closed

By Aaron Crowe For some things, such as a rose, what we call it really doesn’t matter. As William Shakespeare put it, “That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” For automakers, unfortunately, that doesn’t hold true when naming a new car. A name can be a good first […]

How to Get the Lowest Rate

We can find you the best quotes for your unique circumstances, but we can’t change your driving record or other aspects that impact your insurance options. Here are a few things that can make a big impact now, and in the future.

  • Bundle your auto insurance with other policies

    One of the easiest ways to save is by settling on a single insurer for multiple policies. Most insurance companies will automatically prorate savings and pass them along to you.

  • Consider a family or group insurance plan

    Insurance costs are often lower if you share a policy with multiple people. Bundle each family member’s insurance or go in on a policy with a group to find lower rates.

  • Build your credit score

    The better your credit, the easier it is to get a cheaper insurance policy. Insurance companies use this metric to determine insurance costs, so you’ll want to work on improving your credit to lower premiums.

  • Take a defensive driving course

    If your driving record is a little rough, it can help to take a defensive driving course. Insurance companies often take that into account, and it can often lower your rates.

  • Purchase a vehicle with the latest safety features

    Cars with safety and anti-theft features can help out your insurance prices because they’re less likely to be stolen or damaged. Definitely take a look at these.

  • Ask about discounts that might be available

    Depending on your personal history and a few other factors, there may be a discount or two you qualify for that could lower your rate even further. Some of the most common discounts include good driver or senior discounts.

Auto Insurance Discounts Can Save You More

The opportunities to save even more by applying a discount to your rate are everywhere. Get more affordable car insurance with these discounts:

  • Military and Federal Discounts
  • Safe Driver Discount
  • Good Student Discount
  • Multi-policy Discount
  • Safety Feature Discounts
