How flexible are life insurance quotes. Can I negotiate with company for a better rate.?
I got a quote for my family and me for life insurance (20 years/400K each). I would like to negotiate a better rate with the broker (assuming same coverage).Can it be done, or are the rates fixed, is there room to negotiate. we did the blood work and were offered standard rates.
Your rate can not be negotiated when the underwriting is done. If you don’t like your rate, you can refuse to accept the policy within 30 days and there will be a refund of premiums.
What you can negotiate is going through different companies. Shop around. Make sure you check the financial strength ratings from AM Best!

Rates are not negotiable. They are set and approved by the Department of Insurance. Broker fees may be negotiable so you can ask about that.
And, why were the rates standard rates and not preferred rates? You need to ask about that too. Kids do not need $400K of life insurance. Is that what you did? You may be an exception to the rule but it sounds like this agent is making big money on you.
Your kids could be covered under your policy as a "Children’s Rider". It is just enough to cover for a funeral. You need to talk to your insurance agent or find another one.
Since I do not know you these are just suggestions. Having a good agent is invaluable. An good agent gives you what you really need and does not rip you off. And, like I said I don’t know you so I can not say what is right for you.

The insurer makes the offer pretty much on a take-it-or-leave-it basis. The broker can’t change that.
