Insuring a vehicle with a
rebuilt title
is similar to insuring a vehicle with a clear title.
To look into rates with
car insurance companies
, you need the VIN or vehicle identification number.
Once you have the VIN: Start shopping around with car insurance companies. 
Not every car insurance company offers insurance on rebuilt or salvage titles: Some may levy a surcharge, or additional fee, when the vehicle has a rebuilt title.
Shop around to save: By requesting
car insurance quotes
before buying the vehicle, you can be sure you’ll be able to afford to insure the vehicle as well find coverage for it.
To make the process as easy as possible, consider signing up with the
Jerry
app. In just minutes, you can compare quotes from over 50 insurers so you always get the best rate, even for a rebuilt title.
