Ways to reduce your insurance premium
During the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s still important to protec your home and your belongings. This is a tough time for many people, and that’s why we’ve put together some ways you could reduce your insurance premiums.
Bundle your policies
If you haven’t already done it, it’s well worth insuring all your property with the same insurance company. Bundling your home, cottage, trailer or boat insurance can help you save on your premiums. Plus, it’s a lot less hassle having only one company to contact in the event of a loss.
Update your home insurance
- Review your coverage. It’s worth letting your insurance company know if you’ve made changes like re-roofing your home. It could save you money on your premium.
- Increase your deductible. A typical home insurance deductible is $500. If you’re comfortable paying more out of pocket in an insurance claim, you could increase it to say $1,000 and reduce your home insurance costs.
- Has someone in your home quit smoking? Let us know! A smoke-free home reduces the risk of a fire, and it lowers your insurance premium.
