Does anybody know any good Insurance agents for auto/home? (Phoenix: homeowners insurance, homes)

It looks like tha majority in here are State Farm customers but I personally like the idea of Allstate lowering your deductible with every year that you keep a clean driving record. You might try to look up assorted companies online and get some ideas who does what for how much though.

America Family Insurance in Mesa - Tony Huberty office - my entire family has been with him for over 15 years - prompt, reasonable rates, discounts for driving records, no insurance claim discounts
we pay for car insurance 2 fairly new cars less than 40000 mile on each - both cars less than 4 yrs old and total is about 1000 yr
Great service, friendly people, no hassle

I called Geico and ended up talking to a lizard with a British accent..

I've been with American Family for 10 years and I'm very happy with them.

I'd recommend getting on insurance company websites, many of which have provisions to enter the information and they'll give you a quote.

I had AAA in Illinois, and the rates were fantastic. Claims were a decent process. But their rates here were unbelievable! They wanted $1100 for two 5-7 yr old vehicles.

Being a Costco member, I found the best rates through their Ameriprise partnership. Auto is $1460 per year for the 2 vehicles, homeowners was up to $250 cheaper per year than Geico or AAA. Roadside assistance and glass coverage (not worth paying for) is free for Costco Executive Members.

We paid $570 last year. FYI, Ameriprise won't insure a new customer with a recent homeowners claim.

No experience yet with their claims service.

Travellers was the best deal I could find for myself. But that is with a good driving record and good credit.

That is one great "hang on to an existing customer" marketing sensation, L_A_Woman.

The Hartford has been doing that for years and now I am down to ZERO Deductible on both of my vehicles.

Whenever I shop around I always find my best bet is to stick with The Hartford.

From Australian Government web page...

Australia’s formal name is the Commonwealth of Australia. The form of government used in Australia is a Constitutional Monarchy – ‘Constitutional’ because the powers and procedures of the Commonwealth Government are defined by a written constitution, and ‘Monarchy’ because Australia’s Head of State is Queen Elizabeth II.
