How to Choose the Best Insurance Agencies in NY
3

• One of the most overwhelming things is to
  purchase insurance from NY insurance agencies.
  Conditions, definitions, exclusions,
  endorsements, and coverages can give you a
  headache. Insurance may not be the first thing to
  pop on peoples minds, but imagine how your life
  will be without it.
• Imagine losing your home or business to a fire or
  theft and you have no insurance to help you get
  everything back to track.
• If you ever lose your home, car, or business, you
  would immediately want to know the name of your
  insurance company, agent, and what they can do to
  make your situation better.
• So, clearly, its crucial to purchase coverage
  from the best NY insurance agencies. But, how do
  you find them?
• Here are the considerations to make

1. Insurance Company vs. Independent Agent

• In New York, we have independent agents and
  insurance companies. The former sell their own
  products as well products for other companies. An
  independent agents job is to find the right
  insurance company that suits your needs.
• An independent agent doesnt have exclusive
  relationship with a single insurance company.
  These agents provide a wide array of products
  from various insurance companies. They can also
  guide you on difference insurance products,
  pricing, and coverages.
• Independent agents dont usually work for an
  individual insurance firm. Instead, they always
  work for their clients and represent them, which
  can make a huge difference during claim time.

• Insurance companies, on the other hand, partner
  with independent agents before and after a policy
  is sold. The company
• Reviews the coverage suggested by the independent
  agent and uses that information to determine
  premium.
• Handles all your insurance payments
• Sends you a copy of the insurance policy through
  mail
• Adjusts your policy according to the agents
  recommendations, or because of a particular
  lifestyle change, such as buying a safer vehicle.
• Provides a business with strategies for
  preventing losses
• Pays claims when losses occur

2. The Reputation or History of the Company

• Do some research about the insurance provider you
  are interested in. Check out their websites to
  learn
• The companys years of experience in business
• Mission, vision, and core values
• Types of insurance products they sell
• Community involvement
• The companys leadership
• You may not find a company that has only positive
  reviews. If the information on their site leaves
  you with unanswered questions or makes you
  uncomfortable, research other companies. As with
  any purchasing decision, you need to be
  comfortable with the decision.

3. The Coverage of NY Insurance Agencies

• Consider an insurance company that offers
  suitable coverage for your business or personal
  needs. If you find a company that can provide you
  with more than one coverage, that would be great
  because it will save you tons of time looking for
  and dealing with other NY insurance agencies.

4. Pricing

• Pricing should not be the only factor to guide
  you when searching for insurance companies on
  Long Island or anywhere else in New York. Pricing
  differs among insurance companies for different
  reasons.
• A lower price might mean getting less coverage,
  which means should a loss occur, youll have to
  get more from your pocket to fix it. Lower prices
  may also mean that the insurance provider has
  penetrated a new market, and so they may not have
  similar experience as other insurers. Be sure to
  talk to your insurance agent regarding the price
  variations.

5. Ease of Doing Business

• You should know how to interact with the
  insurance provider. The interactions can include
• 24/7 customer support
• Policy changes
• Online bill pay
• Billing questions
• Social media platforms
• Online claim reporting

10
6. Discounts

• Most insurance agencies offer discounts. When
  discussing about a specific coverage with your
  agent, find out whether there are discounts to
  benefit from. You can save a lot of money by
  purchasing a policy that has a discount.
• Find out whether the carrier provides a discount
  is you take multiple policies. If you have your
  homeowners insurance, motorcycle insurance, life
  insurance, and car insurance in one place, it can
  save you in terms of premiums if the carrier
  provides such a discount.

7. Financial Strength

• The insurance companys financial strength is
  crucial when you determining whether its a good
  fit for your personal or business needs. Insurers
  should have the necessary assets so they can pay
  out claims. So, you should ask the company
  representative about the assets they have.

12
8. Service Model

• New York insurance agencies can sell insurance
  services to clients directly or via a network.
  Thats why its important to understand the
  companys service model so you can make the right
  decision.
• For instance, you should find out details about
• How the company handles claims
• The available customer support
• Who handles the claim? Is it the companys
  employee or an external claims adjuster?

13
9. Payment Plans

• Some agencies have flexible payment plans, such
  as monthly, quarterly, yearly or semi-annually.
  Find out how the insurer accepts payments.
• While some companies offer discounts for full,
  upfront payment, others may give a discount on
  automatic withdrawals.
