Distracted driving is, of course, unsafe. But it also keeps you from some serious savings on your car insurance. Our DriverIQ program rewards you for having a steady hand behind the wheel and, unlike other providers, we won't increase your base premium or surcharge you for poor driving.

Winter is gone and spring has sprung, so now is a good time to check your property for any post-winter damage. Read on to find out how you can get your property in shape and avoid costly future damage with our spring home maintenance checklist:

1️⃣ Check your roof
Repair cracked or missing shingles and remove debris buildup, such as leaves and branches. If you have a newer roof or are planning to get a new roof, you may be eligible for a home insurance discount.

2️⃣Clean gutters and downspouts
Clear your gutters and downspouts of leaves and debris to help the spring rain flow freely from off your roof, reducing the chance of damage caused by a backup.

3️⃣ Check for other exterior damage
Repair torn window screens and weather stripping, cover holes and gaps where animals and bugs can get in and check the chimney for damage.

4️⃣ Check your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors’ batteries
These life-saving devices are a key deterrent for home fires, eliminating or reducing damage to your home.

5️⃣ Get a dehumidifier
If your basement is damp, you may have poor ventilation – a dehumidifier can help dry things up. If you have valuables in your basement, talk to your insurance agent about sump pump backup coverage.

❇️ Bonus tip: Check in with your insurance agent
Make sure you’re protected with proper home insurance before severe spring weather hits.

Completing the items on this home maintenance checklist can keep your property looking good and help you avoid future home insurance claims.

If you’ve ever thought that you may not have enough life insurance, you’re not alone. According to the 2024 Insurance Barometer Study Report, 22% of life insurance owners say they do not have enough coverage. Non-owners who say they need life insurance represent 30% of all respondents.

So, what stops us from getting the coverage we know we need? Cost, or more accurately, perceived cost. Nearly three-quarters (72%) of all respondents overestimated the cost of a basic term life insurance policy. It’s worth noting that 54% said their estimate was based on “gut instinct” or a “wild guess.”

The truth is the right life insurance for your needs might be more affordable than you think. Contact me today to see how we can affordably enhance your life insurance coverage with Forbes’ 2024 #1 ranked life insurance in the U.S. or get you set up with a policy that will help you rest easy at night.
