- Futurisk's Hot Tips for Saving Money on your Insurances | Futurisk
Futurisk's Hot Tips for Saving Money on your Insurances Futurisk's Hot Tips for Saving Money on your Insurances Contact Us 4. Increase your excess. For most insurances (not life insurance), you will almost always have to pay an excess when you make a claim. By agreeing to pay a little more if and when you make a claim you can often get a discount on your insurance premiums. The one thing to be careful of is that whatever the excess is, you are able to meet that amount should you have to make a claim. 5. Work out the best way to make your payments. Insurance companies will often give a discount if you pay your insurance premiums in a yearly lump sum. That suits some people while others may prefer weekly or monthly payments. You need to do what is best for you. One thing is for sure though; there are savings to be made if you can pay annually. By the way, if you pay yearly it is good to spread the renewal dates for insurances throughout the year. If they all come due in one month it can be quite a stretch financially. 6. Review your insurances regularly. I can say with a degree of certainty that most people, if they haven't reviewed their insurances in the last three years or so, can save money by getting new quotes and reinsuring. It's worth taking an hour or so occasionally to contact a few insurance companies and ask for quotes on your insurance needs, in particular, vehicle, house, and contents insurance. 7. Go with one company. Many insurance companies will give generous discounts if you place all your vehicle, house, and contents insurances with them. When you buy an insurance policy, make sure you ask the question, "What discount will you give me if I put all my policies with your company?" 8. Use an expert! There is nothing like an expert to define what you require and discover where the best price can be found. Find a broker you can trust and get him/her to regularly review your insurances. If we were buying a new appliance or vehicle, we'd shop around. If we wanted some new computer gear or were renovating our kitchen, we'd look for the best deal. So why don't we do that with insurance? It seems many New Zealanders think of insurance as coming in a fixed package at a fixed price, but there are some practical things you can do to save money on your insurances. Here are six hot tips. 1. Work out what you need. Insurance premiums are calculated on the value of what you insure, so the higher the value, the higher the insurance premiums. To insure something for more than what it's worth means you are throwing away money every month. Whether it's for your life, car, home, contents or something else, work out what you want insured and how much it is worth. Don't be one of those people who waste money by over-insuring and so paying premiums that are higher than they need be. Also be careful not to risk a financial crisis by under-insuring and receiving money that doesn't cover the loss of an item. 2. Get quotes. If you are arranging your own insurance, get quotes from a few different companies. Especially for vehicle and house and contents insurance - the cost can vary greatly from company to company. One good way to know if you are getting a good deal is to work through a broker. They have usually sourced the best deals and may even be able to offer discounts because of the number of deals they put through. Remember though, the cheapest price may not equate to the best deal. That's where tip number three comes in. Read on.... 3. Make sure you know what you're buying. View next post At Futurisk, we work for you, not the insurer.

- Frequently asked questions when buying a home | Futurisk
Frequently asked questions when buying a home Frequently asked questions when buying a home Contact Us Should I get an appraisal? Yes. An appraisal is an opinion of the value of the property you are planning to purchase. It's one of the requirements needed to apply for a home loan. Should I pay for a home inspection to check the house? Yes. It is a must to have a professional house inspector check the house first before you decide to buy to get your money's worth. We all want some peace of mind when buying something important like buying a house. Should I use an Agent to buy a house? Yes and No. Yes, because an agent can help you with finding a home that will suit you by giving you a list of available homes within your price range and can also give you some information about the housing market. However, be careful to choose by comparing background, experience and agencies. Or you can ask someone you can trust. No, if you want to do it personally and are ready to take on some house shopping yourself. Should I go directly to the bank or other mortgage lenders to borrow? You can go directly to your bank and ask about their mortgage lending criteria. Or you can let us help you by getting the best offer without the hassles of going through the all the rudiments of getting a home loan. How much can I afford? The answer to this depends on your income and your liabilities (debt). Ideally, most home buyers purchase a house that costs between 1 ½ to 2 ½ times their annual income. However sometimes, there are no houses available in your ideal price range. If this is the case, you may need to spend a bit more. Just keep in mind that your monthly mortgage repayment can't exceed 29% of your gross monthly income and your total debt payments (mortgage payments, car payments, credit cards and hire purchases) can't exceed 40% of your gross monthly income. How much can I borrow? It depends on a number of factors and these may include: The value of the home Your income and your ability to repay the mortgage How much you have saved towards your deposit If you are eligible for a First Home Loan Type of home you are planning to purchase How much should I offer for a house? Each property is unique on its own and the ideal offer will depend on how the buyer perceives the value of the property. If a particular house is overpriced an offer below the listing price would be appropriate. If it's just within the ideal price range, an offer at the asking price or just below the listing price will be fine and if it's priced below the actual value, then you are in for a good bargain (get it while you can soonest!).
