BEFORE REQUESTING QUOTES

Bring the same facts to every conversation.

Consistent inputs make differences in price, coverage, and service easier to see.

Property facts

Construction, age, square footage, roof, heating, plumbing, electrical updates, occupancy, and protective devices.

Household needs

Personal property, valuables, liability, loss of use, home business, rental activity, and desired deductibles.

Written comparison

Compare valuation method, limits, endorsements, exclusions, deductibles, insurer, premium, and effective date.

QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING

A lower price is not the whole answer.

Take notes and request important explanations in writing. The policy and endorsements—not a verbal summary—control coverage.

How was the dwelling or property limit estimated, and what valuation method applies?
Which causes of loss are excluded, limited, or subject to a separate deductible?
What property or household changes must I report during the policy term?
How would temporary living expenses and claim support work after a covered loss?
