Top 7 Things to Look for When Buying Insurance

So you’re ready to shop for insurance and are hoping for a great deal.  But did you know that there are a few things to look for that are much more important than the price of the policy?  In fact, don’t buy your next policy until you look for these seven things:

#1 – A Top Rated Insurance Company – You want an insurance company that will be around if you have a claim. Don’t choose a company that you’ve never heard of with a price that seems too good to be true!  If you aren’t familiar with the company your agent is recommending, ask for a little more information.  Find out what they are rated in your state and how long they’ve been around. SAV-ON Insurance Agencies has more than 30 insurance companies from which to choose, and they’re all solid companies.

#2 – Choose a LOCAL agency!  While all the commercials on TV will tell you to call a 1-800 number for a quote, it’s usually not a great idea. SAV-ON Insurance is a local agency that provides the same great policies — from the same companies! — but allows you to deal with one person on a regular basis. It’s nice to have a local agent who you can call or visit when needed, who is familiar with your insurance needs!

#3 – Choose an agency that offers a variety of policies. Keeping your insurance with one agency makes it MUCH easier when you have a claim.  Plus you can qualify for huge multiple policy discounts!  SAV-ON can take care of all your needs in any one of our four nearby offices.

#4 – After-hours support – What if you have storm damage in the middle of the night?  Do you want to wait until tomorrow to get assistance?  Look for an agency that offers after-hours support! SAV-ON provides you with 24/7 claim assistance numbers.  Make sure to ask for the information.

#5 – Choose an agency that’s EASY to contact!  You don’t want to have to chase your agent down every time you need something.  SAV-ON is available by email, text or phone while doing your shopping.

#6 – Do they offer annual reviews?  Things change, especially when it comes to insurance!  SAV-ON Insurance Agencies regularly meets with you to review your coverage and make sure you’re protected. Ask about our review procedures and how we make sure there aren’t any gaps in your protection.

#7 – Excellent customer service – When it comes down to it, this is the most important of all!  SAV-ON wants your business and strives to give you the best possible service!
