Most homeowners and drivers set up their insurance policies and rarely revisit them. However, regularly reviewing your insurance coverage—whether for your home, car, or investment properties—can lead to significant savings and ensure you have the protection you need.
The Importance of an Annual Insurance Review
Insurance markets shift, premiums fluctuate, and companies adjust their rates over time. By reviewing your policies on an annual or biannual basis, you give yourself the opportunity to:
-
Compare rates and coverage options
-
Identify potential savings
-
Confirm that your policies still match your needs
-
Ensure you’re adequately protected against unforeseen risks
A Real-Life Example
Recently, I reviewed my own insurance policies with the help of my broker. The results were eye-opening. My premiums from the previous year totaled around $6,500. After my broker re-shopped my coverage, the cost dropped to approximately $4,500—a $2,000 savings without reducing the quality of protection.
This kind of outcome is not uncommon. Often, simply asking the question—“Can I get a better rate this year?”—can lead to substantial financial benefits.
Why Work With an Insurance Broker?
One of the best ways to simplify the review process is by working with an insurance broker. Unlike agents who work for a single company, brokers have access to multiple carriers and can compare a range of options on your behalf. Even better, you don’t pay them directly; brokers are compensated by the insurance companies. That means their services are free to you, while still providing professional guidance and ensuring your coverage is comprehensive.
