Discounts for insurance

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

At Oasis insurance we always make sure that we apply any discounts we can to your policy so that you are able to get the cheapest auto insurance and home owner insurance policy possible in Arizona.
Some of the discounts that you can receive are:
Multi Policy (combining auto and home or auto and renters)
Multi Car (more than one vehicle on one policy)
Prior insurance (more than 6 months of continuous coverage)
even your job may give you a discount.

You SHOULD be requoting your auto insurance policy every 6 months to see if your prior insurance discount can save you even more money. Some companies will give auto insurance discounts for continuous coverage up to as much as 5 years. So the longer you keep insurance the better the discount. That does not mean you have to have the same policy, just no lapse in coverage.

I only want street legal insurance in Arizona

Saturday, November 14th, 2009

“I only want street legal insurance”.

A lot of client come in the office requesting auto insurance quotes, asking only for “street legal insurance” or “ insurance to show the cops if pulled over”. Some times we need to step back and see the real picture , insurance is not for the cops and street legal has the minimum limits.

In AZ It’s 15/30/10 what do this numbers stand for, if you are at fault in an accident your insurance will pay the other driver $15,000 tops per person for medical payments, and $30,000 tops per occurrence only for medical payments, and it refers to; in one accident your limits will only pay $30,000 so if you have more than 4 passengers in the vehicle you hit only 30,000 will be available to share in the 4 passengers. The las 10 refers to $10,000 for Property Damage , the average vehicle on the streets is more than $12,000 , Another scenario say the vehicle hit is not a total loss but you hit 2 vehicles, the $10,000 limit would have to share in 2 vehicle 5,000 per vehicle. Now if any thing goes over your limits your liable. Or in other word you would pay out of pocket.

If you are asking for this “street legal insurance “not only the coverage you are asking is the minimum but you are not asking for medical coverage if some one hits you, and guess what your passengers can also sue you if you in an accident.

“Solo lo que requiere la ley”

Muchos clientes piden presupuestos con cobertura “ solo lo que requiere la ley” o “solo aseguranza para mostrarle a la policía si te para” En este caso necesitamos analizar la petición, la aseguranza no es para la policía y los limites minimos en casos no son suficientes,

Los limites minimos en Arizona so 15/30/10 y esto números se refieren a los pagos medicos del otro conductor en un accident $15,000 por persona como tope y $30,000 por accidente, en otras palabras el limite es $30,000 por accidente digamos que el otro vehículo tenia 4 pasajeros tus limite solo paga el tope de 30,000 para los gastos medicos, El ultimo 10 se refiere a $10,000 para reparar o pagar propiedad dañada, el vehículo promedio en las calles es de $12,000 , o en otro caso digamos que en el accident le pegas a 2 vehiculos, tu limit solo tendría $10,000 para compartir en los 2 vehículos en otras palabras $5,000 por vehiculo, Si alguna cantidad supera tus limites de tu azaguranza tendrias que pagar de tu bolsillo.

Si pides aseguranza solo con lo que la ley requiere no solo estas pidiendo los mínimos limites, si no que no estas pidiendo cobertura para gastos medicos si hay un accidente y el otro conductor es culpable, tus pasajeros también pueden demandarte si no tienes cobertura para gastos medicos.

what is glass coverage?

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

Working as an Insurance Agent you see a lot of people get confused with this type of coverage because a lot of them think when they get full glass coverage is automatically included, but every company is different.

Glass coverage is a type of comprehensive auto insurance that may either be included in the comprehensive coverage with the same deductible or as a separate coverage, depending on the insurance company.

Separate glass coverage has lower deductibles than most comprehensive policies, most companies here in AZ offer zero deductible. This means that if you break your windshield and it must be replaced you would be responsible for 50 to 100 dollars of the cost, or nothing at all, depending on your policy.

Most glass coverage also offers free chip fixes. If you get a small crack or chip in your windshield and get it fixed in time, it will likely be covered at no charge, depending on your insurance company.
