Umbrella Insurance
You work hard for the things that are important to you. For added coverage above and beyond the liability limits of your Auto or Home insurance policies, a Personal Umbrella insurance policy can provide added protection for your assets and future earnings.
Ask Me About:
How do you know?
The best way to make sure you’re getting the right balance between coverage and affordability is to ask an insurance agent these three questions:
1. What does the policy cover? Make sure you know what you are paying for, and add things you want (Roadside assistance? Towing?) and drop things you don’t want (Roadside assistance? Towing?).
2. Do I have enough liability coverage? Liability coverage may be mandatory and state laws set a minimum coverage limit, however, those state minimums are often too low to protect you in the event you cause a multi-vehicle accident. Ask your agent what the average claim amount is.
3. Are there any available discounts? Many drivers can benefit from discounts. Many carriers offer discounts based on lower miles driven per year, or for going a certain number of years without an accident. You can’t get the discounts if you don’t ask about the discounts!
1. Understand what is covered, what is not covered
Before a storm hits you, make sure you clearly understand what your home insurance policy does and does not cover.
2. Do a damage inspection after extreme weather
You need to perform a careful inspection of your home and property after a serious storm. Check for missing shingles on your roof and damage to your siding and gutters, and any other exterior features on the home. Be sure to take pictures of any damage you find!
3. Have contractors provide estimates
If you discover damage that is covered by your homeowner’s insurance, you’ll be wise to have multiple contractors over to see the damage (and inspect for additional damage that you might not have noticed). Ask each contractor for a repair estimate. Get at least three written estimates for your insurance company.
4. Compare the estimates against your deductible
Use this test to determine how to proceed:
• If the estimates are less than your deductible, pay for the repairs yourself.
• If the estimates are equal to your deductible, pay for the repairs yourself.
• If the estimates are slightly higher than your deductible, pay for the repairs yourself, if you are able. Why? Because every time you file a claim your claims are recorded in a shared insurance database. As your claims add up, if can negatively affect your future ability to insure your home. You really only want to make a claim when you have to.
• If the estimates are clearly higher than your deductible, file the claim and have your insurance company pay for the repairs or replacement.
5. File your claim promptly
When you determine that you do need to submit a claim, do it immediately. Many insurance policies provide a specific window of time in which you can file your claim after the damage occurs. If you delay your claim could be denied.
They’re going without essential protection
A 2015 Gallup poll estimated that 12% of the US population lacks health insurance (even in the age of ObamaCare). However, that number more than doubles among the Millennials with about 25% of lacking health insurance.
Other findings about Millennials’ insurance coverage includes these surprisingly low numbers:
• Only 64% have auto insurance
• Only 12% have renters insurance
• Only 36% have life insurance
Why aren’t Millennials buying insurance?
Economics: Millennials are facing a changing and disrupted labor market, and when coupled with the burden of student loans, many Millennials simply don’t have the cash available to buy protection.
Mom and Dad: Millennials are relying heavily on Mom and Dad for their car and health insurance. The Affordable Care Act allows parents to list their children on their health coverage plans until they turn 26.
A risky choice
Simply put: Millennials driving, renting and living without insurance protection are putting themselves in positions that could result in the loss of their possessions and/or stifling new debt.
Consider this about car insurance:
• If you drive a car and do not have auto insurance, you’re breaking the law.
• If you’re at fault in a collision in which people are injured or killed, you are responsibly to pay for medical expenses.
• If you’re at fault in a collision that damages someone’s property, you’ll have to pay for medical repair or replacement costs on your own.
• You could be on the hook for tens of thousands of dollars, and in some states, jail time.
Consider this about renters insurance:
• In the event of a fire, flood, tornado, etc., your landlord’s insurance policy won’t protect, repair or replace your personal possessions.
• If a guest is injured while at your apartment and needs medical attention, again, you could be responsible for bills that result from a trip to the ER.
If you’re already cash-strapped, rolling the dice on being uninsured is a careless and potentially dangerous move. The key to finding affordable coverage is exploring your options.
No matter your budget, there may be a level of insurance protection that is just right for you.
We’ll be happy to talk with you about your level of risk and how to protect yourself
As Americans, we love our cars. We may not love our car insurance costs, but the financial protection we gain from those policies is a trade-off we just can’t live without -- just ask anyone who’s been involved in an accident.
1. Comparison Shop. If you have a good driving record and/or buy a safer car, your premium may go down. But shop around - increased competition means better auto insurance rates!
2. Ask for discounts. These factors may lower your insurance premiums:
• Combining two or more cars on one auto insurance policy
• Buying a car with airbags or other safety equipment like stability control or automatic braking
• Installing anti-theft devices in your vehicle
• Completing a safe driver’s education course
• Insuring your home and auto with the same insurance company
• If you’re between 50 and 65 years of age, ask about a mature driver discount
• The good grades discount (for students under 25)
3. Increase your deductible. The higher your deductible, the lower your premium. Set your deductible as high as you comfortably can.
4. Remove comprehensive and/or collision coverage on an older car. If your vehicle is several years old–or worth less than $1,000–it may not be worth much anyway, and you’re overpaying for protection. Dropping unnecessary coverage can reduce your monthly premiums.
5. Find out what your insurance will be before you buy a car. Auto insurance companies know which cars are expensive to fix and/or which don’t protect you so well in accidents. Don’t let yourself be surprised. Before you buy a new car, do some research and ask your insurance company what would happen to your rates. If you can get a VIN on the new car, you’ll get a more accurate idea of what will happen.
6. Review and update your policy regularly. Your auto insurance rates change due when you add or remove drivers or automobiles, or even if your daily commute changes. Talk to your insurance company about any changes you make. You could walk away with lower premiums!
If you were among those who received an unpleasant surprise when your auto insurance policy renewed this year, don’t despair. There are ways to take the sting out of your car insurance premiums. Just try these simple tips:
Always buy at least 10x your income in life insurance coverage. If you’re getting a policy through work, it is likely only one year’s worth of coverage, which isn’t nearly enough for those who depend on you now.
If you’re the primary earner in your household, your spouse and children need to be taken care of if something happens to you. When you have plenty of coverage in place, it will allow them to maintain their lifestyle until they figure out their next steps.
Regarding the length of the term, you might think you’re saving money by choosing a shorter term of coverage, like 10 years instead of 20. But what happens if you buy a 10-year policy and you have medical issues nine years from now that raise the cost of your next plan—or make you ineligible for coverage? Those few dollars saved earlier are now exponentially more expensive.
2. Waiting Too Long to Get Covered
The longer you wait to buy life insurance, the greater the possibility something will happen that will disqualify you from life insurance, or that will make your coverage more expensive. Life insurance premiums generally increase as you get older, so buying sooner rather than later can save you money.
3. Failing to Review and Update Your Life Insurance Policy
It’s always a smart idea to go over your term life insurance policy to make sure you have exactly what you need for your current situation. Your coverage might have been fine 10 years ago, but that doesn’t mean it works for you now. If you have added a mortgage or student loans, that initial term payout may no longer be sufficient.
Life insurance is a major part of a healthy financial plan. Don’t put off buying it, or you could find leave your family in a major financial hole one day.
What other questions might you have about life insurance? We’ll be happy to help you understand your options.
