HomeInsurance com has recently announced the kick-off of their Save to Win Contest. This contest offers homeowners the chance to save on home insurance and win a $250 Lowe’s Home Improvement gift card. Save to Win contestants work with HomeInsurance.com agents and compete to see who can save the most money on their home insurance policy- the biggest saver takes home the prize.
“With the current economic slump and foreclosure rates skyrocketing, we know that homeowners could use the savings now more than ever”, said Carlos Lagomarsino- CEO of HomeInsurance.com. “While we always save our customers the most amount of money possible on their homeowners insurance, the contest will encourage more homeowners to explore their savings opportunities and possibly even win a $250 gift card”.
The contest begins on October 6th and runs through December 5th. Contestants must purchase the new policy through HomeInsurance.com to qualify. They must also submit proof of their savings from their old policy to their new policy.
“The process is very simple: Customers get a low quote, purchase a policy and then fax us proof of their savings”, said Bruce Berry, V.P. of Sales. “The biggest saver wins.”
Saving on home insurance is nothing less than embraced by most homeowners who have felt the effects of the post-Katrina rate hikes and the looming mortgage crisis. Residents of Texas and Louisiana know this all too well as they pay the highest home insurance premiums in the country- an average of $1,258 per year (not including flood).
The Save to Win contest will run for 60 days and contestants must fax proof of their savings in by December 5th, 2008 5 PM EST. Contest details can be found at: homeInsurance.com/savetowin
This past weekend we received coverage from the local newspaper in our area. Just wanted to share the article as well as our Letter to the Editor that we submitted (below).

In response to Mickey Sutherland’s concerns about online insurance companies from the article, Online insurance agency to add jobs in Monkey Junction:
While oftentimes online insurance companies may be guilty of providing policies without providing sufficient advice and explanation of the policy- the agents at HomeInsurance.com are specifically trained to provide consultation to every customer they get on the phone. While many online agencies stem from a web entrepreneur gone insurance agent, keep in mind that HomeInsurance.com’s roots are planted in Carlos Lagomarsino’s 16+ years in the business as a traditional insurance agent. While the binding process can take only minutes- most agents spend a minimum of 30 minutes with each customer explaining benefits and answering customer questions. I know this because I work on the floor- not as an agent but on the marketing team- and I get plenty of exposure to the agent/client relationship.
This is evident not only in every phone call between an agent and a customer, but also in the resourcefulness of the web pages within HomeInsurance.com. The website was built around the idea of being an online homeowner’s guide to home insurance. HomeInsurance.com provides in-depth information about home insurance for customers seeking information about coverage, rates, discounts, limitations of coverage, etc. The site even boasts an online insurance glossary, calculators, home inventory spreadsheets, FAQ s and a daily blog- all designed to promote informed insurance consumers.
Agreed, the failure on the part of some online insurance companies to provide top notch customer service is a great one. This is one reason HomeInsurance.com is so unique in the online home insurance industry- we constantly strive to bridge the gap between the vastness of the web and the specific needs of each homeowner we work with.

The past month at HomeInsurance.com has been an exciting one. We have recently expanded our National headquarters, based here in Wilmington N.C. to accommodate for our fast paced growth. In the past 4 weeks alone, we have hired 20 new agents and plans are to hire about 30+ more before the end of the year. With not even a year under our belts since our acquisition of the domain name HomeInsurance.com, I believe it’s safe to say that we have taken off with gusto. But the past year does not even begin to tell our whole story- the home insurance professionals at HomeInsurance.com have been providing some of the top home insurance products in the industry since 1992. (See our brag book of awards).
But rest assured- as we grow our commitment to superior customer service will never waver. Our agents, who undergo rigorous training and licensing procedures, are some of the top agents in the country and all have at least one thing in common:Our customers are their #1 priority.
P.S. Stay tuned to our blog and website as we will have an exciting contest starting soon- hint, hint: a chance to win big prizes from HomeInsurance.com!
