Moving to the Magnolia State

11/29/2011 8:35:00 AM

Are you planning a move to Mississippi? Insurance companies do not always offer coverage that will transfer from one state to another, so you may have to add insurance research to your list of things to do. It is important to make sure that you are not caught off guard by assuming that coverage you had in your previous location will continue post move – this is not necessarily the case.

When considering your insurance options, it may be helpful to make a list. What types of insurance do you currently have? You probably have home insurance, health coverage and auto insurance as a minimum. You may have some additional policies such as life insurance or extra policies to cover extreme weather events or a particular type of natural disaster. Do you have a business as well? You will need to look at all of your policies and find out which ones you can transfer and which ones will require you to cancel and find a replacement policy.

You can do some planning and make some early phone calls to Mississippi insurance companies well in advance of your move. That can be time consuming when you’re planning a big move, so another great idea is to call us and set one of our helpful agents to work arranging quotes and policies for you.
