Florida helps consumers save on home insurance

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - This week the Office of Insurance Regulation launched a website that compares insurance rates.

An old site offering similar bargain shopping opportunities was taken down when former Governor Charlie Crist left office.

OIR spokeswoman Brittany Perez says the site has everything you need to find the best price. “We believe that this tool provides a forum where consumer can compare the different estimates for rates and they can get the contact information all on one page so they can make the best choice for their coverage,” said Perez.

The site has a Florida map with a county by county breakdown so consumers can search their area for the lowest rate.
