We’re currently shopping around for some Insurance (House & Contents), and are trying to decide going direct with someone like ANZ (Underwritten by Vero), or using a Broker (Have received some quotes by Rothsbury, as they seemed to be quite widely recommended).

I’m finding prices similar, but ANZ definitely seems cheaper overall.

I had heard that getting insurance through a broker is better, as come time to put through a claim, they will help you through the process, and get paid out faster. Is this really the case?, and so making it worth the higher costs (few hundred more).

    One option is to email the ANZ offer to a broker and ask if they can beat it. They most likely will say no, but they may also tell you the difference between your policy and theirs. That can help you decide.
