Compare more than the premium: check the coverage, exclusions, limits, excess and whether the sum insured is enough for your circumstances. Read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) and look for important conditions, such as security requirements, unoccupied-home limits or agreed-value rules for cars. Consider optional benefits, claim procedures and the insurer’s financial strength and service record, rather than choosing solely on price. Quotes and cover can vary based on your details, so confirm the policy with the insurer or a licensed insurance broker before buying.
