Renter Ins

1. Go Shopping For Rate Quotes

Far and away the best way to save on your renters insurance is to get rate quotes from as many companies as you can, then compare those quotes and go with the best one. You can save a lot of time by going to an insurance comparison website where you can get quotes from a number of A-rated companies quickly and easily. (See link below.)

2. Get the Highest Deductible You Can Afford

The deductible is the money that you pay toward a claim before your insurer will pay. By raising your deductible you can lower your premium by up to 40%.

3. Get a Multiple Policy Discount

Most companies will give you a 5% to 15% discount if you purchase both your auto and renters policies through them. You will also have only one agent and one company to deal with.

4. Install Security Devices

You can get a good sized discount on your policy by installing such security devices as burglar alarms, dead bolts, and window locks. Installing these devices will also give you peace of mind knowing that you're protected from burglars.

5. Install Safety Devices

Installing safety devices like smoke alarms, or purchasing a fire extinguisher, will usually get you a discount. Even if you can't get a discount you should have these items anyway.

6. Clean Up Your Credit

Many companies now check your credit rating. If you have a bad credit rating they may consider you a high risk and charge you more for your policy. You can get your credit report free from any of the major credit agencies like Experian or Equifax.

7. Get All the Discounts You're Eligible For

Most companies offer all kinds of discounts. Some of these discounts include senior discounts, non-smoker discounts, gated community discounts,   [Renter Ins continues below...]

and a host of others. Ask you insurer to give you all the discounts you're eligible for when inquiring about renters insurance.
