What do I need to know about car insurance in Cochrane, Alberta?

In Cochrane, basic automobile insurance, which includes accident benefits and third-party liability, is required by law.

It’s mandatory to have a minimum of $200,000 in insurance and accident benefits coverage if you're driving here in Cochrane, but coverage beyond this is optional. If you want more than the minimum coverage, one of our insurance brokers can help factor it into your budget.

What do I need to know about home insurance in Cochrane, Alberta?

Home insurance is not mandatory in Alberta, but if you have a mortgage your lender will likely require you to have an insurance policy.

Alberta can have severe weather at times like tornadoes, wildfires, and hailstorms. Home insurance typically helps protect when these severe weather events happen.

Without home insurance, you’ll be responsible for paying out of pocket for damages to your home and detached structures like your shed or garage.

Home insurance also covers your personal belongings and helps protect you should someone get injured at your home.

I dealt with Bre for business insurance. She is great! Very easy to talk with and knowledgeable. I was stressed about getting insurance and making decisions, she listened to me and answered my questions in a way that made it easy for me to understand. I appreciate the time she took to help me. I felt well taken care of and better understand insurance now.

We had the pleasure this week to work with Kristal Elliott at Western financial group Inc. there are no words that can describe how happy we are with her help in purchasing house and car insurance. Kristal very patiently explained to us what we are purchasing and why it is important to have that insurance. She had all the answers to our questions. It was a pleasure to work with her. I cannot express how happy we are with her service. 100% recommend her and no one will be disappointed Should they inquire and work with Kristal.

It was a pleasure to work with Kristal who within 48 hours was able to secure for us a home policy on a home we just purchased in Cochrane. She answered all our questions and was able to amend our documents within moments of emailing her. She helped to alleviate the stress that goes along with the purchase of a new home. We highly recommend her to all new home buyers needing this service.
