I’m in the process of selecting a home insurance broker and could use some advice. What qualities or credentials should I look for in a reliable home insurance broker? Are there any recommendations for top brokers or tips on ensuring I get the best coverage and value?

Ask your friends who they use and whether they like them.

Seek recommendations from reliable people in your professional network, particularly those a level or two above you who are competent and dependable.
If that’s not an option, check with any professional organizations you belong to or your credit union, as they might have referral partnerships.
In the worst case, using trustedchoice.com is better than relying on a random Google search.

Choose a home insurance broker based on knowledge, customer service, reputation, and range of insurers. Compare quotes, understand your needs, and read policy details carefully.

Going online and trying to get a policy in place real quick by yourself often feels like the quickest and easiest option.
Finding a local reputable agent/broker is a much better decision for the vast majority of people. If you want to have confidence in your coverage you would be much better off spending your time tonight looking up reviews of local agencies than trying to get website generated quotes.
