Choosing the best homeowners insurance can seem like a daunting task. Luckily, there are some ways you can make the process easier. Here are some tips to get you started:

How to choose the best homeowners insurance policy for you

The first step to choosing the best policy is to understand what's included in homeowners insurance coverage. Homeowners insurance covers damage to your home, as well as personal liability coverage for damages or injuries.

A homeowners policy can also help pay for temporary lodging if you're unable to live in your home while it's repaired. This is included in the part of coverage for additional living expenses.

How to compare homeowners insurance companies

When comparing insurance providers, there are three key things to consider: cost, location and reviews. You can compare the cost of homeowners insurance policies by getting quotes from providers.

The rate quotes will be partially based on your location and other factors like crime or extreme weather. Also, reading reviews can give you insight into a company's policies and customer service.

How to tailor your insurance coverage and bundles

A homeowner insurance company can offer a variety of extra protection in the form of personal property coverage for personal belongings. However, if you live in an area prone to floods or earthquakes, you'll need an additional policy for extended coverage.

Discussing your needs with an insurance provider is the best way to determine you get the coverage you need.

“Real estate” means so much more to me than simply buying or selling property...I believe it’s all about the people behind those transactions. A house would never be a home without them. That is why my first question to you will always be “what are your goals and how can I help you get there?”

Helping someone to plan and achieve their goals is just as important as listening to what they are. I know first-hand from over a decade of experience just how much it can take to make it happen. With honesty, diligence, and resilience, however, no hurdle is unconquerable. I can guide you through the entire process, always making you feel comfortable, informed, and in control. Like I said before, you are always the first priority.

I chose to partner with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Real Time Realty because, just like me, they realize that real estate agents are much more than salespeople. Every person and every goal is just as important as the last - and Berkshire Hathaway has all the tools and resources to get the job done.

It’s been an absolute privilege to meet some of you and help you achieve your goals. I can’t wait to meet the rest. Whether you’re looking to buy, sell, or both, I am confident that I am the last agent you’ll need. A better future awaits...give me a call and let’s get started!
