How to find cheaper Watertown car insurance quotes
Resourceful drivers should always be thinking of ways to cut the monthly cost of insurance So glance through the money-saving ideas in this next list and maybe you’ll find a way to save a little dough on your next car insurance policy.
- Cheaper rates come with better credit scores. Having excellent credit of 800+ may save $265 per year when compared to a credit score ranging from 670-739. Conversely, a less-than-perfect credit history could cost up to $308 more per year. Not all states use credit score as a rating factor, so check with your agent or company.
- Find cheaper rates by qualifying for discounts. Discounted rates may be available if the policyholders are loyal customers, are good students, insure their home and car with the same company, are military or federal employees, belong to certain professional organizations, or many other discounts which could save the average Watertown driver as much as $286 per year.
- Compare auto insurance rates before buying a car. Different vehicle models can have very different insurance premiums, and insurers can price policies with very different rates. Get multiple insurance quotes before you buy a new vehicle to prevent insurance sticker shock when you get your insurance bill.
- Don’t file small claims. Most insurers reduce rates a little if you do not file any claims. Car insurance is intended to be used for significant claims, not minor claims.
- Buy vehicles with more affordable car insurance rates. Vehicle performance has a huge impact on the cost of car insurance. For example, a Volkswagen Atlas costs $520 less per year to insure in Watertown than a Subaru BRZ. Lower performance vehicles cost less to insure.
- Obey the law to get lower policy cost. To get affordable car insurance in Watertown, it pays to be a safe driver. In fact, just one or two moving violations could result in increasing insurance rates by up to $448 per year.
- Save by raising your deductibles. Raising the comprehensive and collision deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $300 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $588 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
