Get the Right Car Insurance with O1ne Mortgage

When it comes to car insurance, finding a policy that fits your unique needs is crucial. At O1ne Mortgage, we understand the importance of having the right coverage. Follow these steps to ensure you get the best car insurance for your situation.

1. Understand the Different Types of Car Insurance

Knowing the various types of car insurance is the first step in determining your needs. Here are the most common types:

• Liability Insurance: Covers damage to other people’s property and injuries you cause in an accident. Most states require this type of insurance.
• Comprehensive Insurance: Covers damage to your vehicle from theft, vandalism, natural disasters, and more when you’re not driving.
• Collision Insurance: Covers damage to your vehicle from accidents or collisions with objects.
• Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage: Protects you if you’re in an accident with a driver who lacks sufficient insurance.
• Medical Payments/Personal Injury Protection: Covers medical expenses for you and your passengers, regardless of fault.

Additional coverage options like roadside assistance and rental reimbursement can provide extra protection but may increase your costs.

2. Review Coverage Requirements and Needs

Once you understand the types of insurance, it’s time to determine how much coverage you need. Consider the following factors:

• Vehicle Status: If your car is financed or leased, your lender may require full coverage. If you own it outright, you can choose your coverage as long as it meets state requirements.
• Cost and Budget: Consider your deductible and premium. Minimum coverage might be cheaper, but ensure you have savings for potential repairs.
• Vehicle Value: For older, less valuable cars, comprehensive and collision insurance might not be worth the cost. For newer or rare vehicles, full coverage is advisable.

If unsure, follow the 10% rule: if your annual premium exceeds 10% of your car’s maximum payout, full coverage might not be a good investment.

3. Compare Quotes from Multiple Insurers

To find the best coverage, compare quotes from different insurance companies. You’ll need to provide:

• Driver details and license number
• Address
• Vehicle details (year, make, model, VIN)
• Annual mileage
• Desired coverages

Using a comparison tool can save time by providing multiple quotes from reputable insurers in one place.

4. Look for Ways to Save Money

Insurance discounts can significantly reduce your premium. Common discounts include:

• Accident-free discount
• Violation-free discount
• Defensive driving course discount
• Good student discount
• Homeowner discount
• Multi-vehicle discount
• Multi-policy discount

Improving your credit score can also lower your insurance costs. Tools like Experian Boost® can help increase your credit score by including on-time payments for utilities, rent, and more.
