I'm building a new home. There is no tax credit available? Should I get insurance with my loan or use my co.?

More likely than not, any insurance you buy added to your loan, will pay the lender, not you. That's ALWAYS a bad deal, in my book.You're probably best off, buying a homeowners (WITH BUILDERS RISK ENDORSEMENT!) from the carrier that does your vehicles - you'll get that extra credit on your car insurance right away.BE SURE your agent knows how to properly insure a home under construction. It's a bit trickier than insuring cars.
