Each insurer has a slightly different policy mix and each family has a slightly different set of circumstances. It is entirely possible that a different company could give you a better rate for the same coverage simply because their programs and discounts fit you better. Do some homework and find the company that fits you best.

The insurance business is very competitive. If an agent thinks that shaving off a point or two on your policy could land you as an account, it might get you a lower premium.
