Are you a new driver in Edmonton? Likely your insurance rates are the highest they’ll ever be in your driving history. The same goes for young drivers on the road.

There are several ways to reduce your insurance bill as a young or new driver. Our brokers have helped many new drivers over the years.

A few tips to reduce your insurance rates:

  • Drive safe
  • Take a defensive driving course
  • A higher deductible leads to lower rates

She helped me settle my missed payment after I switched to a new insurance company, which could have been devastatingly painful if I had to pay the insurance company for a whole year as a penalty. When she immediately called me back after our first conversation, I had this feeling that she wouldn't just leave me waiting for a penalty note. She called the insurance right away to justify my circumstances and listened to her where in the end I was paying for the amount due, not the whole year. People like her could make a difference in your life.Lovepreet M. ★★★★★ Eloise S. ★★★★★ Rep Kerry-Ann Morgan-Ellis is just simply the best more like her pleaseWendy P. ★★★★★ I would like to thank Kyle Lihaven for being so helpful and knowledgeable with both of my insurances.

Many thanks for your assistance.RehmanSami P. ★★★★★ RehmanSami Piracha
I am a sharp customer for 9 years since I landed in Canada, they are good and responsive, however being close on both Saturday and Sunday is not a very convenient practice for its customers, moreover a bigger pain point is that their on-call wait time for a new customer and an existing customer vary by a large number which seems totally unfair and feel like exploitation of existing customers, I hope they will look into this, they do charge top dollars for their service so a better turn around seems like need of the hour.Paulie D ★★★★★ Makes dealing with insurance so easy.

Thank you 🙂Sean P. ★★★★★ Our experience with Sharp insurance and Travis Stringer our broker has been nothing short of excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable, patient, explained everything thoroughly, answered all of our questions, and made himself available to us outside of business hours and on his days off. He was committed to getting us the best deal possible with the absolute best coverage and when we bundled our auto into the package we saved 40% on what we paid years before.
