Do I need flood insurance?
Flood insurance is mandatory if you live in a high risk flood zone and a good idea even if you don’t.

An Elevation Certificate may be required to determine your flood insurance rate, if you live in a high risk area. Elevation Certificates are relatively quick and inexpensive to obtain. Nsure will tell you how.

What is a 4 Point Inspection and do I need one?

A 4 Point Inspection is required by the majority of insurance companies on homes usually over 30 or 40 years old.
Nsure will analyze the data on your house and let you know if you need a 4 Point Inspection.

What impacts my home insurance rate?

Different insurance carriers have different criteria. They can weigh different factors differently in calculating their insurance rates.
Every homeowner’s situation is unique. The insurance carrier that works best for your neighbor may not be the one that is best for you.That is why Nsure obtains quotes for its clients from over 50 top-rated insurance carriers.

How much coverage do I need?
Nsure provides you quotes at three different levels of coverage. First, we recommend the Best Coverage values based on our data analytics and provide you with the three best competitive quotes from our insurance companies.
We also provide you with three competitive quotes at a Basic Coverage level and three competitive quotes at an Expanded Coverage level. You receive a total of nine quotes with the differences between each coverage level explained.
You can raise or lower the coverage levels on different parts of your policy. You can also increase or decrease your deductibles (the amount you are willing to pay out of your own pocket before the insurance kicks in). Simple dropdown menus make coverage modifications quick and easy.
Increasing your deductibles can sometimes significantly reduce your premiums. Although reducing your coverage can also reduce your premiums, it may not provide you with enough protection in the event of a serious accident.
