Home Insurance Agency in Wheat Ridge, CO

Wheat Ridge, CO is one of the most beautiful Colorado locales to settle down and raise a family. It has everything, from proximity to the Denver metro area to easy access to the mountains (and ski slopes!) during the winter months.

Whether you're a first-time home buyer or just new to the Wheat Ridge area, you'll want to make sure to make a smart decision about your property insurance options. These steps will help simplify the process.

1. Get your home appraised.

If you're just in the process of buying your home, chances are this step has already been covered during the buy-sell process. Regardless, you'll want to have a good idea of your home's value; this enables you to purchase just the right amount of coverage without leaving gaps or paying for more than you need.

2. Talk to an independent agent.

Our Independent agents work with many different insurance companies, so they can get you several quotes in one stop. That's one of the best ways to save time (and money) when you're searching for the insurance agency and policy that fits your needs. Independent agents will also talk to you about each policy's specific coverage limits and your home's situation, so they can suggest the types of coverage most likely to be a smart investment for you.

3. Read potential policies thoroughly.

Once you think you've found just the right combination of coverage to protect your home, you'll want to read the fine print to make sure you know exactly what is and isn't covered. Take the time now to ask your agent about anything that doesn't make sense. Know your deductibles and any exclusions on your policy before you sign, and if those exclusions make you nervous, ask about purchasing extra coverage; flood and earthquake insurance, for example, are not usually included on standard policies.
