We recently teamed up with <a href='https://www.consumerreports.org/'>Consumer Reports</a> on an eye-opening project that made us rethink how we evaluate, purchase, and engage with our homeowners insurance policy. This week’s episode is about what we learned.Here’s what we unpack:<ul><li>Why homeowners insurance is way more confusing and critical than we thought</li><li>What’s driving double-digit rate hikes (even if you’ve never filed a claim)</li><li>How your dog, HOA, or even local crime rates affect your premiums</li><li>One of the most overlooked parts of your policy that could actually save you</li><li>Why checking your mail might be the most important financial task you do this week</li><li>How to protect yourself with umbrella policies and avoid common traps</li></ul>This one’s shorter than usual, because we want you to take action:  → Read your policy.  → Shop around.  → <a href='https://www.consumerreports.org/money/homeowners-insurance/best-homeowners-insurance-companies-a2677953960/'>Check out CR’s list of top-rated homeowners insurance companies based on actual customer satisfaction, claim handling, and renewal transparency </a>Links: <ul><li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/p/DQCY2VSCSsJ/'>Why are Homeowners Insurance rates going up right now?</a></li><li><a href='https://www.instagram.com/p/DQHaQUPgHqm/'>Homeowners Insurance & Extreme Weather: What you should know</a></li></ul> Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our <a href='http://www.richandregular.com/'>website</a>, <a href='https://www.instagram.com/richandregular/'>Instagram</a>, <a href='https://twitter.com/richandregular'>Twitter</a>, and <a href='https://www.youtube.com/@richandregular'>YouTube</a>. <a href='https://richandregular.us19.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=ea4c6332a691ba7e83c195da7&id=dc61f8cd92'> Join our email list</a> to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.
