Who's good out there? Buying a 600sqft home and looking for the cheapest I can find. Or I guess I should say, who is the most competitive? All input appreciated.

Shop around and make sure you're comparing apples to apples.  There isn't one correct answer on this.

ETA: You have other insurance, right?  Cars?  Start there.  Consider moving everything if the right deal presents itself.

My GEICO bundle is almost 50% less than a lot of others for nearly the same coverage.

Same with Amica for me.  I shop it every year or three.  Every major insurance company is the "best deal" for someone.

Oh I should add, it'll be part of a mortgage.

Make sure it covers you and not the mortgage holder.

Safeco is way cheap.  I went with American Family for better coverages.

State Farm was the most expensive quote I got.

Typed out a thorough response but I'm too drunk to repeat it.  Compare coverage cheapest isn't the best usually.  Make sure they'll fix whatever broke and any other shit to maintain the value of the home.

600. Well 1200 if you county the unfinishes basement and it has an attached garage.

Just went through this myself. Here's an example of some quotes I got last month for our 2500sq.ft ranch style home built in 1958.

After a small claim last Fall, Allstate increased our annual premium from $700 to over $1100. It was time to shop around.

We get a group rate through our work with MetLife. With apples-to-apples coverage the discount netted an annual premium of $350, but, we have galvanized plumbing so the deal didn't go through.

Finally ended up going with Nationwide at $546 roughly half of what we would have paid if we stayed with Allstate.  

I will say this, the MetLife associate told me that they are one of the few companies that have guaranteed replacement cost for Homeowners coverage. A majority of the others are 125% capped as is my current coverage with Nationwide.

We've been wanting to replace the old galvanized pluming anyway. I want to get that done and then renew with MetLife next go around.      

Best of luck!
