I am very happy with Allstate overall the service is excellent and the agent is good to work with. The one time I had claim the service was fast and fully to my approval. The rates are a little high but the service makes up for it.

My home insurance premium and deductible are reasonable. My premium is $1,662.37 for a year of coverage, and includes over $1,000 worth of discounts. My deductibles are $3,900 for hurricanes and $1,000 for all other perils.

Policy Offerings
I'd say that their policy rates a little lower than some other ones. I I had‚Äã switched from another company to Allstate because Allstate premiums have not been going up yearly like the other one has so much. offer about the same as a another insurance company would.

Progressive Home Insurance Reviews

Date: July 22, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Policy Offerings
At the time I was looking for insurance,Progressive was the cheapest option in our area. I compared them to at least 5 different companies. They also offered several different packages.


Date: July 05, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Customer Service
I love progressive home insurance because it is online, cheap and easy to use. In the event I have any issues or home insurance claims, they send someone to my home from progressive within 24 hours.

Date: April 12, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Policy Offerings
I don't really have a lot of other companies to compare Progressive to but I imagine they would not have as many good things about them .


Date: March 14, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Premium
My premium and deductible are competitive with other companies I looked at when deciding to switch insurances. Again they worked with me on the price compared to other offers I received.

Date: September 30, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
Our Progressive home insurance policy covers most damages that could occur due to unforeseen circumstances and weather. We did not purchase flood insurance as we are not in a flood zone. The policy also covers theft and damaged personal items.


Date: September 23, 2018    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
I think that Progressive does offer multiple discount incentives especially for their auto insurance. I had a device that I plugged into my car and it was able to tell that I was a safe driver and now I have a permanent discount because of this. I also get discounts for having multiple policies with them.

Date: July 31, 2018    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
That is probably the main reason why I have stayed with Progressive Home/Auto insurance. We had them for renter's insurance and upgraded to home insurance once we bought our house. We get all kinds of discounts for safe driving, multiple policies, and being employed in health care, etc.

Date: June 25, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Communication
I like that Progressive has chat options so instead of sitting there and having to be on hold and calling them, I can just send a chat request and chat back and forth with them. This is especially helpful when I have a problem that I need to resolve or have questions about immediately and can even talk to them while I'm at work multi-tasking.

Date: June 12, 2018    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Website/App
The Progressive home insurance is run through a separate third party called Home Site. Every time I try to log in to see my policy and its offerings it re-directs me to the Homesite website and it gets a little confusing. If I ever have questions Progressive employees can't really address them.

Amica Mutual Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

Date: October 01, 2018    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Premium
I am not upset about the premium compared to other insurance companies but just for the area, we live in. The costs of insurance are higher here due to living "near" the coast. Insurance doesn't even cover flood (we have a separate policy for that).

Date: September 17, 2018    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
Windstorm, Hail, Acts of God, building contents up to 80000 and value of house plus 5% to account for the rise in the cost of living


Date: September 11, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
They are a large national company but are extremely easily accessible. They do not have automated phone systems so whenever you call you to speak to an actual person. The most I have ever waited on a call was 5 minutes.

Date: July 29, 2018    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Website/App
The mobile site is simple to use and easily accessible. It is secure in the fact that it requires a sign in each time. It gives me access to everything I would find on their actual website

Date: May 11, 2018    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Communication
They are in constant communication in regards to coverage changes/requirements. They also send quarterly holiday/greeting cards. They seem to run it more like a small company than a large business

State Farm Home Insurance Reviews

Date: April 23, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Unmarried

Customer Service

Date: April 18, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Compared to Geico, State Farm has been able to offer better service at a lower monthly price. The personnel are located at an office not far away from me which allows me to get better service.


Date: March 09, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Customer Service
I have been with them for the past three years, ever since we bought our first home. The representatives have been always receptive to our complaints and have helped us to settle a few problems.

Date: February 12, 2019    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

The deductible seems to be very competitive based on my discussions with nearby friends who have different insurance companies. So, I am very happy with my current company.

Nationwide Home Insurance Reviews

Date: August 15, 2018    Age: 40 to 49    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Website/App
I generally just go on the site just to see when the taxes are paid because the taxes are in escrow other than that I do not use the website.

Date: July 26, 2018    Age: 50 to 59    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Unmarried

Customer Service
It has been pleasant so far but I really have not had to use the customer service line really all that much. I've only called just to update the policy and they have always been pleasant.

Date: May 06, 2018    Age: Above 60    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
It's about average it started out around 500.00 and has jumped to 700.00 with no claims and just because you do not mean the insurance companies are loyal to their customers. It has been stated in the market to change every so often insurance companies.

Farmer's Insurance Home Insurance Reviews

Date: December 28, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Premium
While I have not done recent comparisons, Farmers was much cheaper at the time when I bought my home. Other companies relied on incorrect risk data that artificially increased the cost of coverage.

Date: December 28, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
I feel like when I was looking for my home owners insurance, Farmers had everything that most major insurers had at a comparable price.


Date: July 11, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Married

Policy Offerings
My coverage is average. I could have upgraded but we only have a mobile home and not alot of things worth insuring. I just want to make sure if a tree falls or something bad happens we are covered.


AAA Home Insurance Reviews

Date: April 06, 2019    Age: 20 to 29    Gender: Male    Marital Status: Unmarried

Liberty Mutual Home Insurance Reviews

Date: December 26, 2019    Age: 30 to 39    Gender: Female    Marital Status: Married

Premium
Liberty Mutual premium and deductible were lower than most other companies I researched, by only a little but I think that made all the difference.

My highest deductible I have to pay out of pocket I will have a lower insurance premium, which I prefer. This has been a lifesaver in the long run.
