Important questions to ask your New York insurance agent

Important questions to ask your New York insurance agent

As New York independent insurance agents, we have the ability to shop many different companies to find you the best rate with a variety of policy options.  If you're looking for a quote or just wanting to see if you're fully covered, there are some questions that are valuable when discussing your insurance needs with your agent.

  1. How much insurance should I get?  We can help you understand your policy and see if there are any gaps in your coverage to ensure you have the best coverage for your budget.
  2. Is my credit used in rating?  Have your agent explain how credit may affect your rates and premiums depending on the carrier.
  3. How does personal umbrella work?  Many times families are underinsured.  We can explain how a personal umbrella policy many help in gaps in coverage.
  4. How do claims affect me?  Take time to discuss with agents how claims affect your premiums and the effects of submitting a claim.
  5. What if I cancel?  Ask your agent to explain the procedure and effects of a cancellation or non-renewal of your policy.
