When you are in the process of leasing a vehicle, it is much easier to go with the same agent for the auto insurance. However, if you proceed in doing this, you might simply pay for more for the coverage. Therefore it is advisable to look for other agents that can offer much lower rates. When a consumer leases, the car that he drives is the property of the leasing agent or company. They definitely would like to see to it that their property is sufficiently covered in case the car gets totaled, damaged or stolen. They likewise would want coverage on the difference between the payments of the auto insurance and consumer’s outstanding lease obligation during the time of damage or accident. This is the GAP or Guaranteed Auto Protection insurance. Usually one will find it already in the lease contract. If you have for yourself a leasing company such as Chrysler or the BMW Financial Services, these are financial departments of major automakers, and so the GAP coverage are already provided by the leasing company. However, you must remember that you are not obligated to accept GAP coverage as part of your auto leasing agreement. In the first place, you need not pay insurance premium as you can acquire same coverage at a much lesser cost. You have to spend sufficient amount of time and energy getting insurance quotes, even from your own. It is also best to request for discounts, especially if you are already qualified for it and make coverage adjustment accordingly.
