“The cost of homeowner’s insurance can fluctuate along with the price of building materials.
If your insurance is rolled into the escrow payments, it can be hard to notice when the rate increases.
A few things can be done to lower the price of your homeowner’s policy without removing any coverage.
First, check in with your carrier and see what discounts are available. For example, you may be able to take advantage of extra savings for security systems and home improvements like storm shutters.
Take a look at your deductible. Is it feasible for you to increase it for a lower premium? If it is $500, get quotes for $1,000 or $2,000, it may save more money than you think!
Another option is to shop around for a lower rate. If you bundle your homeowners policy and auto policy
with the same company, you will receive a multi-policy discount. The easiest way to save money is by downloading the free Jerry
