Of course you know when you
need to call your agent. After an accident, or a leaky dishwasher everyone knows the first person they want to call is their insurance agent. However there are a lot of other times contacting your agent can offer huge benefits. Here's a few rules of thumb to help you get the most out of your annual premiums!
You should always call your agent when...
- You've done renovations! Does that new alarm system get you a discount? Should you increase the coverage on your homeowner's after a remodel? Is your new shed covered properly? You'll never know if you don't call us. More importantly we won't know, and can't keep an eye out for important details of your coverage.
- You're thinking about moving! Apartment or house hunting; is your dream house still your dream house if its zip code causes your auto insurance premium to jump up? Don't get caught by surprise after you've already signed a lease or agreement.
- You have entered a new phase in your life! Getting married? Retiring? Your agent can help you navigate the transition more smoothly. No one wants to be surprised when they're testing the limits of a new budget!
- You've made a big purchase! Maybe it's a new diamond bracelet, an expensive camera, or a new set of golf clubs. Maybe it's that classic dream car you've always wanted, or a new boat. Make sure you have the correct policy to meet your needs by calling your agent as soon as possible after a large purchase.
You should probably call your agent when...
- You're car shopping! We can quote different year, makes or models and help you decide the best vehicle to fit your budget. We don't believe your dream car should come with a surprise price tag and we're always here to help.
- You're going on vacation! Taking an all inclusive trip with the whole family? Traveling more as you retire? Going to a lot of weddings this summer? Call your agent! Travel insurance is an affordable way to prevent any lost funds as a result of illness or disaster in the event your trip runs into trouble.
- Your children are going to college! More than 100 miles away from home without a car? There's a discount for that. If they do have a car, their apartment address may give a cheaper rate on their vehicle than your home address. If you don't call we'll never know!
