    My insurance rate within the past 2 years has gone up about 40% No points, no accidents. The vehicles are getting older. Makes no sense. This is ridiculous. People have always sued and parts plus labor have always been expensive. This all started a few years ago. I wonder why 🤔

    In an investor earnings call Berkshire Hathaway (owner of Geico and other insurance companies) Stated the reason for there 30% growth in earnings was for 2 reasons. First they raised there rates substantially and 2nd they had many fewer claims . The so called inflation rate for the last fiscal year if you look past the surface was. driving by 2 things, electricity and you guessed it car insurance….not food (actually is negative). So the the reason for the rate hikes is corporate greed, they have no oversight and the industry is controlled by a few , very few corporate interests they can raise there rates as much as possible.

    My insurance on my 2015 old Lexus keeps going up. I get that newer cars are more expensive, but why an old car that has outdated old tech, shared parts from cheaper cars, and is still in production? I have a clean record. No car accidents or tickets. My credit score is in the high 700's, too. Lol

    This was all explained so well! Also makes it alarmingly clear that individual vehicle ownership combined with boom-bust cycles is a nightmare for urban planning.
    Bikes, walkable streets, buses, and trains are infinitely more scalable than these insanely pricey houses on wheels. I think we've reached terminus when it comes to car culture and car-centric urban planning. Until I can move to a more walkable city (or fight for more walkability and transit where I live), it's great to know what's driving the insanity. Premiums have gotten insane, especially relative to the value of my vehicle. I think I'll be shopping for a new insurer thanks to this video!

  • @Jasiel.95
    @Jasiel.95 5 месяцев назад +3

    I have to do this. My insurance is 2K per 6mo 16 mazda3 w/ elevated coverages (300k, medical, pip, etc.) renters bundled in. With progressive get into an at fault accident 13 months ago and a not at fault December 23. They paid out a lot in less than a year come June my premiums are going to be high as fuck again.
    They were going down so much.

    Watch to the end. Appreciate all your videos, shorter and longer. Renewal coming up so good timing. How far ahead should I shop around for rates? Lots of EVs where I live and reckless drivers which drives up cost for all. Agree that independent agent is the way to go.

    • @ThinkInsurance
      @ThinkInsurance  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thank you. Shopping around can be done anytime. A lot of people do it 3 weeks before their renewal but, it’s more so when you’re ready.
      Insurance is open ended so if you change companies, you’ll get a pro rated refund from your old company if you’ve already paid them.

    I watched my car insurance jump after any accident that took place, no matter I was no-fault in all cases. The only incident I was at fault for was recently, a fender bender with no damage to my car and a bumper replacement on hers. (In fairness, she stopped short where she should not have but - I did hit her on the "backside", so I am at fault.) I just got my 2024 rate and it is +$100 USD a month to my 2023. It puts me over $350/mo for (1) 2014 vehicle. I don't know what they expect people to do, honestly. I have to have insurance, but I can't afford insurance at these rates. I checked with Geico, Progressive, All State, USAA, AAA, etc. and all of them are over $300 or worse. . .

    Im in MO. Mine just shot up 1000 for the renewal and that’s after 20 percent last year as well. The problem I keep running into is that all the “insurance search engines” want consent to blow up your phone and let everyone start trying to call you. I just want the bids. If I’m interested I can contact to discuss further.

    • @ThinkInsurance
      @ThinkInsurance  6 месяцев назад +4

      That’s what those websites do. I have a similar consent on mine but only share your information with one agent and made them sign a consent that they won’t sell your information :0).
      Trust me, spending 10 minutes talking to the agent will help them better understand your specific needs.

    I'm in Ohio and my insurance has gone up so much in the past 2-3 years. It was never this way before. I have no accidents on my record, no tickets, and a great credit score. My current provider is State Farm. All I need is renters and auto insurance. Maybe an umbrella policy but I am not sure. Any company recommendations?

I’ve move to a better area and gotten married. No accidents, glass claim 8 years ago, no speeding tickets within last 15 years. 800+ credit. Any advice?

      @@lytesout2007 The first thing I would do is look over your policy, or have an agent look it over and see if there is anything missing, changed etc... Maybe even check your discounts again with your agent (I have a few videos on all of these you can watch if you want an idea of what to look for).
      Next, if you are unhappy with the price to coverage and shop, I would consider looking at NYCM or Progressive. Both of them are pretty competitive in NY. Preferred Mutual as a backup.

    What is the difference between "Standard" and Excellent" on desired coverage level on your Quote Request form? (Home + Car)

    • @ThinkInsurance
      @ThinkInsurance  6 месяцев назад

      Standard and excellent are very similar. The excellent refers more to wanting above average, maybe lower deductibles, extra medical coverage. It’s more of a guide to the agent of what to focus on for you.
      Personally, I usually give you both options depending on how large of a price difference it makes. My agents tend to start the quote and schedule a call you to go over and tweak them to fit you’re actual needs, not just your cookie cutter options
