How it translates into more expensive insurance
If your insurance company is paying more money, then your premium is going to be more. When they come, they require your money to pay claims. So more claims and more expensive Claims mean high premium for all of us.
More payment for insurance is a double vaimi. One, we have to pay more than our pocket for the safety we need. Two, we are all experiencing more losses – and are quite harmful on it.
Keep your eyes open to your home safety methods, because the only thing we can try to keep our premium down is to reduce the risk of loss in the first place.
