The 15-Minute Financial Autopsy
Before you can find something better, you need to know what you're working with. Grab your latest insurance policy declaration page and look at these three key numbers:
- Your Premium: What are you actually paying every six months?
- Your Deductibles: How much would you have to pay out-of-pocket if you had a claim?
- Your Coverage Limits: Are you adequately protected, or are you risking financial ruin?
Become a Comparison Shopper
This is where the magic happens. Your mission is simple: spend 20 minutes getting instant quotes from top-rated companies using the exact same coverage details from Step 1.
Dig Deeper Than the Price Tag
Okay, so you found a cheaper price. Amazing! But the cheapest option isn't always the best option. You need to vet the company behind the low price.
Focus on two things:
- Claims Satisfaction: How do they treat people when things go wrong?
- Financial Strength: Can they actually pay out a big claim?
