  • Our editorial team spent more than 350 hours developing the Insurify Quality (IQ) Score and scoring insurance companies. The IQ Score objectively analyzes and calculates a score for insurers using more than 15 crucial criteria. The team weighted criteria by importance to the consumer — factors such as customer reviews and affordability influence the score more than availability and third-party ratings.

    We rate each company on a 1 to 10 scale based on five categories: financial ratings, customer satisfaction, affordability, customer support and transparency, and availability. Insurify updates ratings once a year or as more recent information becomes available.

    • Third-party financial ratings: Insurify uses data from AM Best, S&P, Moody’s, and more to compare insurance companies’ credit and ability to pay out future claims.
    • Customer satisfaction: To calculate this score, Insurify analyzed more than 55,000 customer reviews across 155 car insurance companies. We also consider third-party ratings from J.D. Power, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, and Trustpilot.
    • Affordability: Our data scientists analyzed more than 90 million real-time auto insurance rates from our partners across the U.S., as well as available discounts, to calculate an affordability score.
    • Customer support and transparency: This measures coverage options, ease of claims filing, and the insurer's transparency surrounding discounts, coverages, and claims process.
    • Availability and reach: Insurify scores availability and reach by identifying the number of states in which insurers offer coverage and company size by market share.

Punishment for 65+ years of no problems.
I have been licensed since two weeks before my 14th birthday, in other words, 65+ years. I had 2 tickets and 1 accident (that was in July 2024). It cost me a $25 fine and no points, yet my rate increased by 60%. This was the only claim against me over the years. I don't drive much, about 10,000 miles a year if that much, and yet I'm being punished for years of no problems. BTW, the patrolman questioned the ability of the on-lookers of the accident.

Why we picked this company

Auto-Owners offers some of the lowest car insurance rates for both liability-only and full-coverage policies in Greer. The company has a much-lower-than-average number of complaints in the National Association of Insurance Commissioners' Consumer Complaint Index. Auto-Owners also scored well above average in J.D. Power's 2023 U.S. Auto Claims Satisfaction Study. But you can only buy coverage through a local independent agent that represents Auto-Owners.

Pros
  • Many available discounts

  • Plenty of optional coverages, including gap insurance

Cons
  • Not available in every state

  • Limited online functionality 

How to get the cheapest car insurance in Greer

Getting cheap car insurance is a top priority for many drivers. Here’s how to lower your costs:

  • Shop around. The cost of car insurance varies by company. If you want to find the best rates for your situation, it’s necessary to compare quotes.

  • Raise your deductible. In general, opting for a higher collision or comprehensive deductible leads to a lower rate. If you can comfortably afford to pay a higher deductible after filing a claim, consider making this change.

  • Maintain good credit. Insurers use information in your credit record to generate a credit-based insurance score which they use to estimate your risk of filing a claim. A good credit history can mean lower car insurance costs. Consider building your credit by making on-time bill payment a priority.

You can also look for insurers that offer discounts you’re likely to be eligible for.

Cheapest liability-only car insurance in Greer: USAA

Liability-only car insurance covers the cost of damage and injuries you cause during an accident. Like many other states, South Carolina requires all drivers to purchase minimum liability limits.[3] While this coverage compensates the other driver for injuries and damages you cause in an accident, this type of coverage won’t help you repair your vehicle or pay for your medical bills.[4]

Greer drivers pay a monthly average of $141 for liability-only insurance. The following table shows the cheapest car insurance companies for liability-only coverage in Greer.

Cheapest full-coverage car insurance in Greer: USAA

Full-coverage auto insurance offers more financial protection than liability-only coverage. It includes comprehensive and collision coverage. Comprehensive covers incidents like theft, vandalism, weather damage, and falling objects hitting your car. After an at-fault accident, collision coverage can help pay for damage to your vehicle, and your liability policy will cover the other driver’s vehicle.[4]

If you lease or finance your vehicle, your lender might require you to carry a full-coverage policy.[4] But even if you don’t have to carry this insurance, it can provide worthwhile peace of mind for your wallet.

On average, full-coverage policies cost $208 per month for drivers living in Greer. Here are the cheapest car insurance companies for full-coverage policies in Greer.

Car insurance requirements in South Carolina

South Carolina requires drivers to carry a minimum amount of car insurance to drive legally. Based on the South Carolina tort law, you must carry at least the state-minimum auto insurance coverage.[3]

Coverage
Minimum Requirements
Bodily injury liability$25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident
Property damage liability$25,000 per accident
Uninsured motorist coverage$25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident for bodily injury liability; $25,000 per accident for property damage liability

Insurance professionals often recommend that you buy more coverage than your state's minimum requirements. Higher liability limits provide greater financial protection in case of an at-fault accident. And if you finance or lease your vehicle, your lender or leasing company will require you to carry full-coverage car insurance.

Here are some optional coverages that also offer greater protection on the road.

    illustration card https://a.storyblok.com/f/162273/150x150/d7333ddf2e/car-and-driving-96x96-orange_046-car-accident.svg

    Collision

    Collision is an optional coverage unless you finance or lease your car, in which case it'll be required. This coverage kicks in to pay for damage to your vehicle from an at-fault collision with another vehicle, or a stationary object like a tree or lightpole.

    illustration card https://a.storyblok.com/f/162273/x/665da91bf7/comprehensive-coverage.svg

    Comprehensive

    Part of a full-coverage policy, comprehensive pays to repair or replace your vehicle in case of a non-collision event such as fire, flooding and other weather hazards, theft, vandalism, and falling objects. It also covers windshield or glass damage from rocks or other objects.

    Gap insurance

    Because cars depreciate in value, it's possible to owe more on a lease or loan than a vehicle's actual cash value (ACV). If your car is totaled, the insurance company will pay you the car's ACV, which might not be enough to pay off your loan or lease. Gap insurance steps in to cover the difference between your car's ACV and insurance payout.

    illustration card https://a.storyblok.com/f/162273/100x100/31bb162db0/accident-forgiveness.svg

    Accident forgiveness

    An at-fault accident can increase your car insurance rates for three to five years. But if you purchase accident forgiveness coverage, your insurer won't raise your rates when your policy renews after your first at-fault accident. You generally must have a clean driving record for at least three years to qualify to buy this type of coverage.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with an incident

An incident on the road — including speeding tickets, driving under the influence, and at-fault accidents — can lead to higher insurance costs. After an incident, insurance companies consider these drivers riskier to insure, which leads to higher premiums for several years.

Cheapest car insurance for teens: USAA

Age translates into years of experience behind the wheel. Since young drivers have limited experience on the road and a higher risk of accidents, most insurance companies charge higher rates for teenage drivers. In general, rates remain relatively high until a driver hits age 25.[1]

Liability coverage costs $250 per month for teen drivers in Greer, on average.

The good news is that teens can take action to lower their car insurance costs. For example, teen drivers might choose to stay on their parents’ insurance, drive a safe vehicle, raise their deductible, or maintain good grades in school to get a good student discount.[7]

But you can still secure affordable rates as a teen driver by starting your search and comparing the most affordable policies for young Greer drivers, as shown below.

Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 250 million quotes served to car insurance applicants in Insurify’s proprietary database to calculate the premium averages displayed on this page. These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 500+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Quote averages represent the median price for a quote across the given coverage level, driver subset, and geographic area.

Unless otherwise specified, quoted rates reflect the average cost for drivers between 20 and 70 years old with a clean driving record and average or better credit (a credit score of 600 or higher).

  • Bodily injury limits between state-minimum rates and $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident
  • Property damage limits between $10,000 and $50,000
  • No additional coverage
Full-coverage premium averages correspond to the same bodily injury and property damage limits in addition to:
  • Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
