Reader’s Question:

Hi there. I’m shopping around online for new auto insurance. Do you think it’s okay to buy my auto insurance from the smaller brands?

Hello there, Pam. Well, it’s good that you’re shopping around online. That’s a good way to find the best deal in town. It’s true that there are a lot of companies selling auto insurance these days, and some companies offer rates lower than others. If I were you, though, I would try to look at the big-name brands first and see if they can fit into your budget.

I’m sure that the auto insurance companies that offer really low prices are tempting. However, wouldn’t you rather have the peace of mind if you were with an insurance company that you are sure will be there if you do get into an accident? Keep in mind there are a lot of scammers out there that may use extremely low quotes to lure you into buying auto insurance, but these companies may not have the financial capability to pay out when you do make a claim. I’m not telling you to disregard the smaller companies altogether, just to be wary and ensure that you put your money with an auto insurance company that you think is reliable.

Why don’t you get in touch with your agent in Illinois and ask him what he thinks of the auto insurance companies you’re looking at?
