Here are some ways my family saves money on our home insurance:

  • We shopped around, then ended up purchasing our insurance through a group affinity program offered by our university alumni association.
  • We combined our home and car insurance with that same insurer. They gave us a special combination discount.
  • We installed a monitored home security system and monitored smoke alarm. Our insurer has an additional discount for these systems.
  • We raised our deductibles.
  • From time to time, we look around to make sure we're still getting a good deal.

Here are a couple of good articles on the subject:

Finally - make sure you get adequate coverage! Make sure you consider your real insurance needs, and not just the cost of the insurance. If the worst happens, you'll want good coverage with a good company.
