6 tips for shopping for automobile insurance Plain Dealer
26.06.10
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Buying car guaranty isn't the kind of shopping that most people get excited about.
In fact, many people stick with the same insurer for decades.
But taking the just the same from time to time to shop around could save you hundreds of dollars a year -- and who couldn't use the extra cash these days?
While Ohio has some of the most affordable car security rates in the country, average prices continue to creep up across the nation. The average Ohio customer paid $654 a year in 2008, only about 1 percent more than the year before, according to the most current data available from Ohio Department of Insurance. That compared to $817 nationwide.
"We're fortunate that our rates are prosperous up a little bit less than everyone else's. We have a really good marketplace for insurance here in Ohio," said Jarrett Dunbar, a spokesman for the Ohio Hang on of Insurance. "We have hundreds of companies competing for everybody's business, and competition breeds lower prices."
