Home Insurance Comparison For The Best Deal
Article by Ljiljana Anicic
Our home is our most valuable asset. If something bad happens to our home we could be left with biggest financial loss possible. But in peoples nature is to think that bad things happen to other people, not to us. Unfortunately, there are no such things as speared ones. Bad thing do happen every day, to ordinary people and we shouldn’t take that risk unprepared. If we are going to become a part of a statistic, than at least, we should get out of this story as winners. Our homes should be insured but not anyhow. We should use home insurance comparison to help us find the best insurance possible that suits our need for, off course, the less money possible.
Home insurance comparison should be performed only then when you did your research about finding out how and what you need to insure. You, of course, know your needs but you also need to know what kinds of policies are available and what they actually mean.
One of the home insurances that are very important because, financially, it would be the hardest to replace it is buildings insurance. This insurance is vital in cases of completely destroying your house due to events that are beyond your control like, for example, storm, flood, fire, explosions and so on.
Another type of home insurance is contents insurance. This insurance include staff like furniture, clothing, appliances and everything else that is not fixed part of your home (baths, fitted kitchens and other that is fixed to your house goes under buildings insurance). Here you have a choice to pick the cheapest policy that offers you replacing damaged or stolen things with things that are the same quality and age. More expensive choice would be replacing your old staff, or used if you prefer, with new.
If you decide to insure your home with both of this coverage’s, you could gain some discount but only if taken with the same insurer. But be sure not to waste money where you think you have saved. What I mean is that, it doesn’t have to be rule that one insurer has to offer you the best policy for both of this types of insurances. If it is a good deal for buildings insurance, maybe it is not for contents and other way around. That is when home insurance comparison is necessary to help you find best deal for whatever type of insurance you need.
Discounts are also possible if you show to insurance companies that you have taken some precautions to protect your house except insuring it. Install some devices like good home security system, time-switch lights, security lighting, smoke alarm and other. Those things show that you are caring and responsible.
Internet makes home insurance comparison easy today. Everything is right in front of you, at one place so don’t be lazy, all these companies are competing for you to chose them so use it and find the best deal possible.

Notes to Editors:
Gocompare.com launched in November 2006 to help people find the right insurance cover at the best price. It was founded by Hayley Parsons who has worked her entire career in the insurance broking and aggregator markets and was the first comparison site to focus on displaying product features rather than just listing prices. It was this philosophy that led to Gocompare.com becoming the first price comparison site to be invited to join the British Insurance Brokers Association (BIBA) in May 2008 and helped force older comparison sites to change their ‘quick quote’ ways and stop using assumptions to calculate estimated figures.
Today, Gocompare.com provides one of the most comprehensive online car insurance comparison services in the UK as well as comparing home, motorbike, van insurance and breakdown cover. In March 2008, Gocompare.com won a Fast Growth Business Award. The judges complemented the management team for ‘an extremely well-executed business with a clear USP and strong brand’.
Gocompare.com is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
