Average cost of homeowners insurance?

There is no shortcut – to figure out if your rate is fair, you HAVE to shop around.

But, as you noticed, if you do it online, what’s happening is your personal information gets harvested and sold to agents as leads – generating LOTS of phone calls.

I’m in Houston. So, I’m more "hurricane alley" than you are, in Dallas – but my homeowners has gone up 20% over the past three years.

If you talk to a local agent, they might be able to show you how to save money on your insurance. The easiest three ways, are by having your car insurance with the same company; by raising your deductible; or by making sure that you’re getting all the ‘update credits’ you deserve, on your policy.

Give a local agent a call.

how much does home insurance cost?

I am looking to buy a home in northern california and was wondering how much home insurance cost. I have a family of 5 (including me), good credit score, and am looking at homes around $250,000. I want descent coverage, but not for a lot of money. could you please answer and give me the names of any place i can get good home insurance that is not too expensive. thanx
it's a 3 year old house in brentwood, ca that is a little over 2000 sq. ft.


It's not based on the number of people in the house, or how much the house cost to buy.

It's going to be based on the age of the house, the age of the updates, the location, the protection class, the building materials, the SIZE of the house, how much it's going to cost to rebuild it, the loss history of both you and the house, among other things.

There's no one company out there that's cheapest for ALL houses. And there's no short cut - to find out who's cheapest for you, you have to shop around.
