- Will they give you discounts for installing safety features in your home? (i.e. security systems, fire extinguishers, deadbolts, etc.)
- Don’t make the mistake of buying more coverage than you need. Think about it: why would you want to pay your insurance company for more than your house is worth? At the same time, don’t under-insure your home either. Talk to your insurance agent about replacement cost of your home and all the contents to ensure you have proper coverage.
