Auto Insurance Tips!
Whether you are purchasing a shiny new car off the lot, or picking up a second car for the kids to drive. You must think about protecting yourself, others, and your new vehicle. Cheap rates are great, but cheap means nothing if your policy won’t cover you when you need it.
So here are a few auto insurance tips to consider when buying your vehicle:
Minimum coverages Yes, buying the minimum coverage will be saving you money. It won’t save you anything in the long run if you ever have an at fault claim though. So, you will be on the hook for your repair and this cost can add up quick!
Larger Deductibles This is like the above point. Yes, a higher deductible will save you a little bit every month, but again in the event of a claim, will you be able to come up with that lump sum deductible?
Combining policies This is not just a trick the companies claim, they actually can give you up to 25% off if you have more than one policy with them.
Don’t lie You may save a few bucks saying things like, you have an alarm installed in your car, or you don’t drive your car to work everyday. Although, in the event of a claim, this could result in the insurance company not paying.
