The National Consumer Agency recently published a survey of home insurance costs for six locations across Ireland. The survey revealed that:

• 80 per cent of property owners that had transferred their home insurance to another insurance company during the last year got a better deal.
  
• The home insurance market is competitive: most
  insurance companies are prepared to negotiate
  with those consumers who have done their research
  and know the deals on offer.
  
• The average potential saving that properties
  owners can expect is in the region of € 300 - € 350.
