Take control of your policy
Adjusting a few little things on your home insurance policy could help you ensure you’re not paying more than you should be – here’s some things you could change.
Check your sum insured
Consider reviewing your sum insured to see whether it’s right for you. That way, you’re likely not overpaying for what you don’t need, or insured for too little when you do. If you adjust your sum insured your premium will change accordingly.
Update your excess
Did you know you can vary your excess? Choosing a higher AAMI Flexi-Premiums excess reduces your premium. Keep in mind that choosing a higher excess could mean paying more at claim time.
Consider your optional covers
Consider if the optional covers you’ve added to your policy still suit your needs. Removing an optional cover will reduce your premium. If there’s something on there that you no longer need, like coverage for a specified portable valuable item that you don’t own anymore, you might want to update your policy so you’re not paying more than you need to!
Update your payment frequency
If you pay your premium annually, you’ll pay less overall than if you pay monthly! You can change from monthly instalments to an annual payment even if you are mid-term.

Depending on your policy type, you can check policy info, make payments, lodge claims and more!
Consider Optional Complete Replacement Cover
Complete Replacement Cover is an alternative to setting a specific building sum insured – if you have this optional cover on your policy and your house needs to be repaired or rebuilt after an insured event, we will offer to repair or rebuild your house as it was or pay you the amount of the assessed quote to repair or rebuild it, without you having to set a specific sum insured.
Choosing this option can either increase or decrease your premium, but you won’t need to worry about being underinsured!
How much should I be paying for home insurance?
Home insurance premiums can vary a lot depending on things like where you live and what sort of house you have, plus factors which may not be specific to you. So, there’s no specific figure to aim for. However, getting to know what your policy covers and what you have control over could help you ensure that the premium and coverage you’re paying for is right for you.
