In a tough economy you're probably looking at every expense you have, trying to find ways to cut your costs. Have you considered shopping around for better rates on your mobile home insurance? Policies that have very similar coverages can vary in their premiums by hundreds of dollars depending on the insurer. You may be able to find substantial savings on the current rates that you pay if you compare policies from several different companies.

There are several other steps that you can take to reduce your mobile home insurance costs as well:

• Raise your policy deductibles. The more you're willing to pay out-of-pocket if you do have to declare a loss (like damage from a fire or a theft), the lower your annual premiums will be. Increasing your deductibles by $500 or $1000 can save you hundreds of dollars on your mobile home insurance premiums.
• Ask if your insurance company provides discounts if your purchase your automobile coverage and your mobile home insurance coverage from the same company.
• Install safety and security devices like window locks, a deadbolt in the door, and fire alarms. Some insurers will cut your insurance premiums if you do.
• Ask about any other discounts for which you might qualify. Are you over 60? Some insurers offer reduced rates for seniors. A member of a special club or organization? Members are sometimes entitled to cuts in their homeowners' policy rates.
