Insurance - Increase Every Year About $100

Possibly, but the cost of repairs isn't static either. Mechanics also increase costs annually. Geography, natural disasters, age, age of the vehicle, etc etc. Hundreds of factors go into premiums. I've also noticed that if a particular company may have more claims in natural disasters, that company raises premiums across the board to offset losses in net income. Everyone pays, whether you filed a claim or not.

But as others said, shop around.

The good news is that for home and vehicle insurance, a competitive market will usually yield several companies with affordable rates.

Another thread perhaps but, I wish the health care insurance market would follow suit. As it stands we are left with the same handful of health insurance companies that have a monopoly and charge disgusting premiums. Politicians are lining their wallets with your money catering to big pharma and the health care industry.

My Progressive rates have remained approximatly the same on our Class C for 10 years. Something doesn't seem right. We buy our autos and RV insurance on line.

Back, I think in the 1950's there was a song.. And the price increases are the insurance company's way of reminding you of this song.. I will type the repeating line from the song with the title highlighted

My mamma told me to do the SHOP AROUND.

If you are a good driver with a clean record, shop around. My insurance goes down each year just by getting other quotes. If you have had an accident/claim and a few tickets, you will pay more. Make sure that you accurately give the miles per year on all of your vehicles because vehicles that are driven less than 7500 miles per year usually get a big discount.

my question would be why would you turn in a claim for $520? What is your deductible?

You may want to shop around;

My premiums have been steady or even gone down on my house/car/TT;

I cut my motorcycle insurance by half by going to another Ins Co and
I got slightly better coverage.

insurance rates are calculated on many factors. the premium on our MH has stayed steady (+/- $20) for the past 3-years.

Prices at repair shops keep going up. So do parts.
