Really, the only way to get affordable car insurance rates in Santa Ana is to compare quotes once a year from insurance carriers that insure vehicles in California.

• Step 1: Try to comprehend policy coverages and the measures you can take to prevent high rates. Many rating factors that result in higher prices like traffic tickets, fender benders, and a not-so-good credit history can be controlled by improving your driving habits or financial responsibility.
• Step 2: Request price quotes from direct, independent, and exclusive agents. Direct companies and exclusive agencies can only quote rates from a single company like GEICO and Allstate, while independent agencies can give you price quotes from multiple companies. View a list of agents
• Step 3: Compare the new rates to your existing rates and determine if cheaper iQ coverage is available in Santa Ana. If you find better rates, verify that coverage does not lapse between policies.
• Step 4: Tell your current agent or company to cancel your current car insurance policy and submit the signed application along with the required initial payment to the new insurer. Once the paperwork is finalized, put the certificate verifying coverage in an accessible location in your vehicle.

A good tip to remember is to compare similar limits and deductibles on every price quote and and to get prices from as many companies as possible. Doing this enables the most accurate price comparison and maximum price selection.
