http://www.ellisfinancial.net/homeowners-insurance-quotes.htm

Many different variables will affect the cost your next homeowners insurance policy. The following is a list of items to remember when shopping for home insurance.

First, the age of your home is very important. Keep in mind that newer homes are much cheaper to insure than older homes. Newer homes are built under much stricter building codes than ones built ten or twenty years ago. Insurance companies pay very close attention to the electrical system within your home, as they are a leading cause of home fires.

This will apply to all 50 states. Alabama AL, Alaska AK, Arizona AZ, Arkansas AR, California CA, Colorado CO, Connecticut CT, Delaware DE, District of Columbia DC, Florida FL, Georgia GA, Hawaii H, Idaho ID, Illinois IL, Indiana IN, Iowa IA, Kansas KS, Kentucky KY, Louisiana LA, Maine ME, Maryland MD, Massachusetts MA, Michigan MI, Minnesota MN, Mississippi MS, Missouri MO, Montana MT, Nebraska NE, Nevada NV, New Hampshire NH, New Jersey NJ, New Mexico NM, New York NY, North Carolina NC, North Dakota ND, Ohio OH, Oklahoma OK, Oregon OR, Pennsylvania PA, Rhode Island RI, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee TN, Texas TX, Utah UT, Vermont VT, Virginia VA, Washington WA, West Virginia WV, Wisconsin WI, and Wyoming WY.

Second, the construction of your home will affect the price of your insurance coverage. Having a brick home will result in lower premiums. Traditional stick built homes often cost ten to fifteen percent more than brick homes.

Third, the location of your home will also affect the cost of your insurance coverage. Coastal regions are much more expensive, as they are prone to more natural disasters. Areas such as the South Carolina coastal area will often cost thirty to forty percent more than the average location.

Fourth, the security system within your home will make a difference in your cost as well. Make sure to have an adequate alarm system in place. We recommend an alarm system that is no older than 5 years.

Fifth, providing these details about your home can save you lots of money in premiums in the long run. Let me show you the place to save the most amount of money on your next homeowners insurance policy.

Yea, those of us in 100 year flood plain homes, with a mortgage who had to have flood insurance are the lucky ones according to everyone. Like you all know everything.
We lost everything and our homes and can't rebuild; not to mention 12 full years of the equity built up is gone.
My foundation caved in on the 11th of June, took a portion of my house with it. Mary and Gordo have both seen it, it is not safe, continues to fall apart, and the city says we only have 49.05% of damage. Including my basement, we had 17'6" of water in my home, 11'6" of that in my living space. we have to mow our yards and shovel this winter or the city will fine us.
Yes, we are the luckier ones. Dont want your sympathy but unless u are living through it, do not fool yourselves into thinking we are the lucky ones....
