How can I lower my homeowners insurance premiums?

There are a few ways you can save on your homeowners insurance with MetLife Auto & Home®.

I’ve never had an insurance claim. Shouldn’t my home insurance costs be going down?

Even if you’ve never had a claim, your insurance costs can still rise over time, although it’s probably rising slower than it is for people who submit claims. Premiums are based on a number of factors in addition to loss history, including:

What’s the process for filing a claim?

Immediately following a loss, call MetLife Auto & Home's claim service team at 1-800-854-6011. You should also:

When can I expect to receive a settlement check, and whose name will appear on the check?

You’ll receive a settlement check as soon as we’ve confirmed coverage and completed an investigation and comprehensive damage estimate. We will make every effort to issue payment on the claim as quickly as possible. If necessary, you’ll receive other authorized supplemental checks once proper reinspections are performed or when your claim adjuster prepares a supplemental estimate. We may be required by state laws and policy language to include any mortgagees/lien holders on your settlement check(s). If a mortgagee/lien holder’s name appears on your settlement check(s), they must sign off on the check before it can be cashed. You should contact them directly to determine the process for co-signing/cashing settlement checks.

If you have Replacement Cost (RC) coverage, in the event of a covered loss, we’ll first pay you the actual cash value for the damage to your property. When you replace the item or complete the specified repairs, we’ll pay you the difference between the replacement cost and the actual cash value amount previously paid. The total amount you’re reimbursed is subject to the terms and conditions of your particular policy, including deductible and limits.

Condo FAQs

Why do I need condo insurance?

As a condo owner, your condo association probably has a master insurance policy that covers a portion of the physical building and grounds. However, this policy likely doesn’t cover your personal property, private structures, or property that’s your responsibility under your property owner’s agreement. This includes updates or improvements you’ve made to your condo, personal liability, or legal costs if something happens in your condo and you’re sued. Having your own insurance policy to enhance the master policy of your building ensures that you’re covered, just in case.

What’s covered with condo insurance from MetLife Auto & Home?

Our condo insurance policies provide comprehensive coverage with the following features:

Replacement cost coverage covers you in case you experience a loss in your condo that may not be covered by the master insurance policy. This includes any improvements or upgrades you’ve made to your condo and personal property you own (such as your furniture).2

Loss assessment protection covers you in case a common area is damaged from a covered loss and the damage isn’t entirely covered by the condo’s master insurance policy. For example, if an elevator sustains damage from lightning and the cost to fix it exceeds what the master policy covers, you and other condo owners may be asked to contribute to make up the difference. With loss assessment coverage, you may not have to pay out of pocket if something like this occurs.2

Liability protection protects your assets from personal liability, so if someone is hurt or their property is damaged, you will be held responsible.

Legal defense covers court costs if you’re sued for a covered claim. We’ll help you pay for attorneys, document preparation, or other related legal expenses.

Your personal belongings are covered worldwide, so that no matter where you are, you’ll be covered if they are damaged or stolen.

Water backup coverage is optional coverage that will pay for loss if water backs up and damages your condo or belongings. Coverage includes: a back up through sewer or drains and sump pump overflow.2

Can I get a discount through my employer or association?

Yes, you may be eligible for an additional discount because of your employer or your membership to certain associations or groups. We recommend entering your employer or association name when you are quoting so that we can offer you the best possible price.

How can I lower my condo insurance premiums?

There are a few ways you can save on your condo insurance with MetLife Auto & Home:

Safety discounts are available in most states. Your premiums will be lower if your condo has fire prevention systems, such as fire alarms, automatic sprinkler systems, smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers. Theft prevention systems, like central burglar alarms and deadbolt locks, may also qualify you for discounts.

Consider choosing a higher deductible. The higher your deductible, the lower your premium. But always make sure that you’re financially able to pay your deductible if you have a loss.
