Courtesy of Monkey Mama...

...I will have a lower home insurance bill. Yay!

I received my renewal a week or so ago. As always, the new premium crept up a bit from last time. The bill is $912.

This morning, after reading Monkey Mama's latest blog post, I pulled out my renewal, went to State Farm's website, and submitted a request for a rate quote. I can get the exact same coverage for $695, saving me $217.00 Smile

Since I have an impound account for property taxes and homeowner's insurance, I will not see any monthly savings now. But, when my account is analyzed and adjusted next year, I will enjoy some combination of lower monthly payments and/or a refund.

    Awesome! I love how the mention savings by someone else spurs us on to save on our own bills.

    Awesome! I really didn't expect much for you, because we have multi-line and loyalty discounts (the loyalty discount is the kicker after being with them many years - have never found any cheaper insurance).

    But, I am still glad you checked! It never hurts to ask. Big Grin

    I think you can request your mortgage company to do an escrow analysis so your payment goes down now.

    ND Chic, that's a great idea. Thank you. Smile
