Tips for buying cheap home insurance

1. Buying buildings and contents insurance together usually qualifies for a discount. See if your car insurance company will offer you a discount if you take out their home insurance.
2. You don’t need to buy your buildings insurance through your mortgage lender – if you shop around you could find cheaper home insurance.
3. Make sure you know the true cost of replacing your home contents as new to ensure you have sufficient cover.
4. Most home insurance companies will give you a significant discount if you have a professionally installed and approved burglar alarm or specific locks fitted to your doors and windows.
5. Build up your no claims discount. When you’ve held home insurance without making a claim.
6. Consider a higher voluntary excess. By increasing the amount you would pay towards a claim you can reduce your premium.

MTG - Very good and helpful Info.

If you consider buying home insurance think of how much insurance you are needed for your property. Some insurance company designates a percentage of additional coverage on top of the insured amount. This is designed to protect the homeowner who has suffered a loss from having to pay additional construction costs to rebuild. It can cost more to build because of inflation or simply because material prices have increased.
