Questions
How do I add a vehicle to my insurance policy?
Contact us via phone, fax, email, or visit our office with vehicle details before visiting the DMV. We’ll provide the required insurance card for registration.
Can I remove a car from my policy without surrendering plates?
No. You must surrender plates to the DMV and provide our office with the FS-6 receipt to finalize removal from your coverage.
Why is my home insured for more than its market value?
Homes are insured for replacement cost (rebuilding expenses) rather than market value to ensure full coverage without depreciation in case of total loss.
Is insurance required to register a boat in New York?
No, but we strongly recommend insuring watercraft before operation despite no mandatory liability requirements for boats.
Are motor vehicles stored in my garage covered by home insurance?
No. Motorized vehicles like boats, campers, or ATVs require separate insurance policies for coverage, even when stored on premises.
How can I reduce my insurance costs?
Contact us directly—we’ll review your policy and identify potential savings through available discounts or coverage adjustments.
