Shopping for Car Insurance
Choosing the right car insurance company can be one of the most important decisions you'll ever make. By having State Farm insurance from Scott Sutton State Farm you are insured with America's largest insurance company for Home and Auto Insurance. With the right insurance policy we can make sure that you are not financially ruined if something happens to your, your car, or your home. Let's review some common terms when discussing car insurance:
Deductible: This is the amount you pay out-of-pocket should you have an accident and file a claim. Let's say you hit a light pole in a parking lot with your car and cause $2,000 worth of damage. If your deductible is $500, State Farm would pay $1,500 towards the cost of repairing your car.
Coverage Limits: When purchasing car insurance you want to make sure your coverage limits are right for your insurance needs. This is the limit that State Farm will pay out to others for damage to their property or for their injuries. Let’s say that you crash into someone else’s car and cause $30,000 of damage and your limits are only $25,000, you’ll be responsible for the remaining $5,000. If the accident is very serious, having the wrong coverage limits could cost you greatly.

I personally feel this is our time to shine and show the customer the value that they are getting from insuring with Scott Sutton State Farm. Contact us immediately if you think you might have a claim and we can recommend vendors and review the process with you.

Should I buy life insurance now or when I get older? – Those who are younger and healthier are less risky to insure with life insurance and thus have a lower cost. If you wait to buy life insurance until they are older may find that the cost is higher than if they began a life insurance policy when they were younger. Contact Scott Sutton State Farm to discuss options and how they suit your needs.
What types of life insurance is most suitable for me? – There are two types of life insurance coverages with a common type being term life insurance. Term insurance comes in three different periods: 10 year term, 20 year term, and 30 year term. With term life insurance you are covered just for the term of the policy. Scott Sutton’s team can review which amount and term length is most optimal. For example you may use a 20 year term to cover the time up until a young child moves out in their early 20s.
How much life insurance should I own? – There are many factors that can be included when deciding how much life insurance to buy. Contact Scott Sutton State Farm to schedule a review of your needs and our life insurance offerings to find the most suitable fit.
