Where to Get Cheap Life Insurance in Texas

By: Brian Stevens | Posted: 03rd March 2008

More than 40% of adults in Texas don’t have life insurance, and even those who do often don’t have enough. Fortunately, Texas life insurance rates are affordable and have even dropped in price the last few years. If you haven’t bought a policy to protect your family’s future, now is a great time to do it.

To make sure you get a good rate, follow these tips:


Make Healthy Choices

Healthy people pose less risk for insurance companies, and thus receive better rates. To keep your rates as low as possible ...

* Buy life insurance when you are young.

* Exercise, avoid tobacco, and maintain a healthy weight.

* If the insurance company requires a medical exam, schedule it for the morning, when your blood pressure, cholesterol, and stress levels are better.


Get Quotes from Several Companies

Rates vary from one insurance company to another because each company has its own underwriting guidelines. So one company’s premium can be hundreds of dollars more each year than another company.

To make it easy to compare companies, go to an insurance comparison website. Here you can get price quotes from multiple A-rated companies at the same time. On the best websites, you can also talk with insurance professionals – a useful feature if you have any questions or concerns about your insurance needs (see link below).

As you compare policies, make sure the policies you compare have similar features, options, and coverages. You also want to ensure that the company you choose is licensed in Texas, is financially strong, and has a good customer service record. You can check these facts by going to the Texas Department of Insurance website.

Also remember that most Texas policies give you a “right to examine” period of at least 10 days. During this time, you can cancel the policy for a full refund. Use this time to review your policy carefully to be sure it's right for you.
