Get 2-3 quotes from known companies (All-State, State Farm etc.). Ask what discounts you are eligible for. Some offer discounts for paying the whole amount upfront. If you have Costco membership, you should try get quotes from their partners who offer home insurance. I saved quite some $$$ when I compared multiple quotes.
