    Home Insurance Caveat
    Wait for your home inspection before paying for the policy. Realize that wind and hail damage claims are prorated based on the age of the roof and are a percentage of the repair cost, less a deductible.

    I think they cost too much. I added my son's vehicle to our policy, and they raised the 6-month cost of not only my vehicle but also my wife's. Our son's was quoted in July at $963.00. Between our 4-25 to 10-25 and the 10-25 to 4-26 policy periods, our 6-month policy went up $236.00 plus his $963.00. Our cost now is over $2200.00 semi-annually.

    I had some issues renewing our account. The rate increase was astronomical. They are very good at covering claims, but the adjuster undercut the estimate, leading to the use of cheap materials. This caused us to spend an additional $1,200 plus our $1,000 deductible.

    Great performance and challenging premium increases
    AAA insurance has been very good in their delivery of insurance coverage. The issue is price. I suspect AAA insurance has a lot of coverage in California, and the losses incurred there by natural disasters are translating into above-average premium increases across all of their coverage. I'd rather not subsidize the lifestyle of folks who want to live in heavily wooded, bucolic estates which are difficult to reach.

    AAA Provides the Best Affordable Rates
    I've been with AAA for over five years. Each time my renewal date comes around, I shop for better rates, but no one ever beats AAA. I get full coverage for both auto and home insurance. I'll be turning 86 next month, and I understand that my age is a factor in my rates. I drive my 2022 Nissan maybe two days a week within a 25-mile radius. I haven't had any accidents or DUIs for over five years. Interestingly, the rates I've gotten from other insurance companies don't include several coverages, including uninsured motorists and car rental, among other coverage. Once again this year, I am frustrated with the rates I've been offered elsewhere and will probably remain with AAA.
