Everybody wants cheap premiums. Folks need good values. Many prices have risen lately. It's easy to see why families hope to stretch budgets. Looking for cheaper rates might help. But homes are an average family's most important asset. Owners are welcome to check prices. They should also compare value. The best insurers are around when you need them.

Compare Florida Homeowners Insurance

What's the best homeowners insurance? These are the four most important things to consider:

    1. Coverage: What's the right coverage? Weigh premiums and risks. Raising deductibles reduces the price. But owners could have higher costs at claim time. The same is true for lowering limits or cutting coverage.
    2. Stability: Can an insurer pay claims? Pay attention to financial ratings. Strong insurers weather the worst Florida storms. Insurers with risky practices might be gone when they are needed the most. Insurers publish ratings on their sites. Learn more about financial stability here.
    3. Service: Does the company focus on customers? Good insurers focus on service. They provide good contact and billing options.
    4. Satisfaction: Does the insurer make people happy? Learn what current customers think. Check customer survey and review sites. Examples are JD Powers and the BBB.
