*You will as well get a discount if you have motion-sensitive lighting on your property. Your house becomes a no-go area for thieves as they'll be spotted easily. Your homeowners' insurance rate will be lower once you've reduced your home's risk of burglary with this type of lighting.
*Try to NOT let your ladders lie around within everybody's reach. You might be helping burglars with the very tools required for their operation. Do not also leave your tools, machinery or such on the lawn or wherever in the open as they could result to accidental injury and add to your liability claims. They also make breaking and entry much easier for burglars. Keeping these things properly will save you a lot of heartaches along with more affordable premiums.
*It's more expensive and needless to insure the land on which your house is built. Some people spend much more than they should on home insurance due to this mistake. You've made same mistake if you insured your house for the price you purchased it without finding out the cost of the land it's built on and deducting it.
If you did such ignorantly, you need to review your home insurance coverage and check it again with your agent. Deduct the price of the land and you will find out that you will need far less coverage.
Your homeowners' insurance rate will be less and you'll still have sufficient coverage if you do this right. Bear it in mind that insuring the land your house is built on is plain waste of money since it does you no good whatsoever.
*Choosing to pay your premiums monthly leads to higher homeowners insurance rates than you'd pay if you decide to pay yearly. Your insurance carrier sends 12 notices for monthly payments as against one for annual payments. This costs them more.
The cost increases if you add the fact that they pay transaction charges for processing each check you give them monthly as payment. 12 checks mean 12 transactions which mean 12 separate transaction charges. And as with every other thing, it's you the customer or policy holder who bears that cost.
You will get considerable savings if you begin to pay annually. You could save up to a month's premium within a year.
*Having your premium deducted automatically from your account will get you cheaper premiums. Simply tell your bank that you intend to set up an EFT (Electronic Fund Transfer) in favor of your insurance provider. Apart from being more convenient, you will receive a discount for this.
*You can lower your home insurance rates by getting and comparing quotes from at least five good quotes sites.
