Home insurance premiums are based primarily on the likelihood of a claim being filed on the home insurance policy. Adding certain safety measures to your home can not only safeguard your family, but it can also lower your insurance rate by dropping the likelihood of a claim.

  • Raise Your Deductible 


Your home insurance deductible is the amount you will pay out of pocket when it comes time to file a claim on your home insurance policy before receiving compensation. Raising your deductible can save money on your monthly premiums, but keep in mind that this also means paying more out of pocket. A home insurance deductible is usually around $1,000.

Before filing an insurance claim, have a professional calculate the cost of repairs or replacement on damage to the home. If the damage to your home costs less to repair than the cost of your deductible, it can be cheaper to make repairs or replacements out of pocket. This also helps to your home insurance premiums rising due to filing a claim. 

Be sure to ask about discounts and speak to your insurance agent about different ways you can save money on your home insurance policy without sacrificing important coverages.
