Bundling multiple insurance lines with one carrier should do more than shave a few dollars off your premium. A smart bundle coordinates deductibles, claims advocates, and renewal dates so you never have to wonder which policy activates first.

Our advisors built the Sureva bundle playbook after reviewing thousands of household audits. Below is the same framework we walk clients through before we recommend a product.

Start with your non‑negotiables

  • List every asset you rely on: vehicles, homes, rentals, business equipment, even side-hustle devices.
  • Rank the financial shocks that could derail your year (hospital stay, collision, income loss, disaster).
  • Note contractual requirements such as lender minimums or landlord liability thresholds.

This inventory gives your advisor the context needed to size limits correctly and uncover redundant riders.

Align deductibles and claims workflows

When policies are sourced separately, it’s common to end up with mismatched deductibles or overlapping perils. We align them so catastrophe-level events trigger the same dollar amount and the same claim concierge. That consistency keeps emergencies simple.

“Consistency is the biggest gift you can give future-you. When there is one number to remember and one claims team to call, you respond faster and avoid costly delays.”

Automate annual health checks

Coverage needs change whenever you remodel, add a vehicle, welcome a new family member, or launch an LLC. We schedule two automated touchpoints per year to document changes, recalibrate limits, and search for new discounts (smart devices, hybrid vehicles, good health statements, etc.).

Checklist to review with your advisor

  1. Verify named insureds and beneficiaries for every policy.
  2. Confirm liability umbrella limits cover your highest-value asset.
  3. Link telematics, leak sensors, or security systems to qualify for usage-based savings.
  4. Request a mock claim scenario so you know exactly what happens when you call.

Bundling is ultimately about confidence. When your policies are coordinated, you spend less time translating jargon and more time focusing on the milestones insurance is meant to protect. If you need help auditing your current setup, the Sureva team is one conversation away.
