Budget Car Insurance – Car Insurance Buying Tips

By Gavin Bloom

Car insurance is an integral part of the insurance budget.
There are a lot of variables that cause the rates to increase or
decrease. Some of these variables cannot be controlled by the
insured but there are some things the insurance buyer can do to
keep their policy reasonable without losing a lot in protection.

What Are Your Assets? – Do you own a home? Do you have several
vehicles? Do you own a business? Do you rent an apartment? Your
strength in assets is a factor when selecting your liability
limits. If you accidentally injure or kill someone in an
automobile accident and you carry low liability limits on your
car policy then your assets are next in line to be used to pay
for the damages.

The Age of the Vehicles – Newer vehicles usually require
physical damage coverage by the lender. Older vehicles with a
lot of miles sometimes do not warrant physical damage. Physical
damage rates can be adjusted up or down based on the deductible
you choose.

The Age of The Drivers – Adult rates, senior adult rates, and
rates for young drivers make a huge difference in the overall
rate. Young drivers on vehicles with physical damage coverage
can be very costly.

What are the Discounts? – There are a number of discounts on
car policies. The multi-policy discount is given by insurance
companies for purchasing both auto and home insurance.
Retirement discounts are available to the senior adult. Young
drivers receive discounts for drivers training education. Some
companies give good student discounts for young student drivers
that maintain a 3.0 grade point average.

Full Tort or Limited Tort – Many states have a discount for
selecting a limited tort option. Tort is your right to sue for
pain and suffering damages over and above the basic liability
settlement. This varies from state to state.

This is the overall picture what insurance companies use to
determine your individual rate. You have a choice when it comes
to liability, physical damage, and tort options. Ask plenty of
questions about these three areas when purchasing car insurance.

By Theodore Olson The Internet has been touted as the greatest resource for the used car buyer. Prospective buyers can find trade-in, private party, and retail values in a heartbeat. The question to consider, however, is what Internet source is right? The three major sites: NADA, Edmunds, and Kelly Blue Book are clamoring to be the Trusted Authority on used car values. Yet price discrepancies are frequently in the $1000’s from site to site. Which web site, if any, is the most accurate source for the used car buyer?
