Where can I Find Reliable Cheap Life Insurance Quotes?

Question: I recently started a home internet based business. When I was just starting out I went without insurance for a while. Now that things are going well I would like to buy a life insurance policy. There are a ton of life insurance sites, but most of them seem biased or focused on an individual provider. Where can I find a good life insurance quote site that is unbiased or gives me quotes from a wide array of services? Also, are there any good tips for saving money buying life insurance for small business owners?



Answer: As a life insurance agent who deals with insurance day in and day out I appreciate your frustrations from looking at thousands of insurance sites. My site http://www.smartlifeinsurancequotes.net addresses these issues. The following are five of the most common mistakes consumers make when buying life insurance. 1. Selecting term life insurance solely because it's cheap. Shopping for life insurance by just comparing premiums is asking for trouble. You should compare company ratings to determine financial strength and policy features, such as convertibility options. While the policy’s premium is certainly a factor, ensuring that your policy matches your financial goals is more important. 2. Not understanding that term life insurance is temporary. That's why it's called "term" insurance -- because you buy it for a set period of time, most commonly 20 years. This is fine for a temporary need, such as insuring yourself until your mortgage is paid off or funding your children’s college expenses in the event of your premature death. A 20-year level-term life insurance policy you bought when you were 30 would expire when you're only 50. At that point, you still might need to carry insurance, but your age and health conditions might make it impossible or very expensive to do so. At least, if your policy has a convertibility option you can get coverage, it just might be down right unaffordable. 3. Buying from a less-than-stable insurance company. Don’t be afraid to ask about an insurance company’s ratings. You can also look for an insurer’s Standard & Poor's, Moody's or A.M. Best ratings on the Internet. There are many insurance carriers with high financial ratings (A+ or better) so you shouldn’t have to buy insurance from a lower rated company. But, keep in mind that ratings can and will change, so ratings alone shouldn’t be your only consideration. 4. Buying life insurance coverage based on a set formula. You may have heard that a good rule of thumb is to buy life insurance coverage equal to 10 times your annual salary or 10 times your beneficiary's annual financial need. The idea is that if your surviving beneficiary invests the life insurance proceeds in the stock market (getting an average 10 percent annual return), they'll have a steady income stream and never need to tap the investment principal. While this formula isn't a bad place to start, everyone has different needs, so don’t assume that 10 times your salary is what you need to carry in life insurance. The best advice here is to sit down with a knowledgeable agent that will take the time to learn about your needs. 5. Failing to regularly review your policy. Is your former spouse still the beneficiary of your life insurance policy? Did you buy term insurance to cover you while you pay off your mortgage? If you refinanced during the latest rate drop and restarted the clock on your loan, you might also need to update your insurance term. Life definitely has a way of throwing changes your way. Just make sure your life insurance changes along with you. Also when shopping on the internet for insurance be careful of sites that are there purely as lead generators because these sites just sell your informations. But, there are plenty of legitamte and trustful site on the internet than one can purchase insurance. You can tell the good from the bad by taking these steps. 1- do not put information in a from unless you actually get a real quote. 2- look for site that have a phone number with real agents that answer the phone. 3-If the sites says get quotes from multiple agents then the site is selling your information as a lead service. Sites like http://www.smartlifeinsurancequotes.net can serve as an excellant resource to start your online life insurance shopping. They have agents that you can speak to or email. You can get quotes from over 140 companies with a robust data base. They are many sites like these but you have to do you research. Like anything else there is the good and bad and the internet is the best place to start your search. Good luck Insguy


Is there a significant difference in life insurance quotes between one company and another?

Question: Are the life insurance quotes of one carrier significantly different than the rates of another, or is it like gasoline where the rates are fairly standard from one provider to another.



Answer: ABSOLUTELY! All rates are determined by the law of large numbers, meaning they determine life expectancy and the cost of doing business based on your age, health(including but not limited to illnesses, medical conditions, weight), smoker status, and companies are allowed to profit up to a certain percantage. DON'T just take premium into consideration, consider the policy itself. There's whole life, universal life, variable universal life, term, etc. When comparing quotes first ensure you're comparing a quote for the same policy type(all act differently). Then, review the differences in the policies themselves, ie, exclusions. For example one policy may exclude suicide for one year, another may exclude it indefinately. One may not cover if death is related to a crime(IE death caused by a car accident while driving under the influence). Another policy may exclude death related to pre-existing conditions whereas another company may not. Some state's Department of Insurance provide a tool that you can use. If your state offers it you can go to DOI's website and use the tool to compare side by side policies of different companies, even their financial stability! (You don't want to buy a $250,000 policy from a company that only has $1,000,000 in holdings. They're either guaranteed to go bankrupt or it means they're good at denying claims, you'd be surprised). I'd recommend meeting with a State Farm Agent. A good agent will be educated and nice enough to take the time to review other quotes you received, and compare side by side for you to help you make an educated decision, whether or not you choose SF. And with respect to insurancepickle.com's response. This is NOT the same money. This isn't an auto insurance policy you can easily compare side by side with another company. This is a complex life insurance policy that can be significantly different from one company to the next. You want to purchase the BEST policy not the CHEAPEST. Have you ever heard the term you get what you pay for? Would you really want to buy the 'cheapest' life insurance policy to protect your family?
