Auto Insurance Quote

I once visited one of these free insurance quotes sites and was shocked to discover that the difference in rates for a comparable policy between two insurance companies was as high as $2000. Please, that was not a typo. The question that quickly came to my mind was: “How would those guys who pay $2000 more for a similar service feel if they found out how much they are flushing down the drain?” I‘ll show you how to ensure you‘re not paying too much.

If all you did was visit just one free car insurance quotes and comparison site, you‘re most likely still leaving some money on the table. It probably won‘t be as much as $2000 but it could still be a very substantial amount. Here‘s why…

Believe it or not, there are interests that are represented in every business you see. The same goes for these car insurance quotes sites. All of them do not return quotes from all insurers because they either have no relationship with such insurers or do not see such a relationship as profitable to them. Some quotes sites are also set up by some insurance companies or their close allies and you understand they are not likely to include competitors with better price value. This is subject to debate. However, just pretend it‘s true for your own good.

Visit at least two of these free car insurance quotes sites (I recommend up to five) and get their quotes. Most will return quotes from up to five different companies. Some will give you just a quote.

Now you have a broader database for your comparison. This way, you will get quotes from insurance companies not covered by the other. The main point here is that you‘ll increase your likelihood of saving much more just by doing this. By getting quotes from more insurance companies, you uncover those who will give you the best price/value.
