Yes. This bundle is convenient in many ways:
- You can save up to 15% on each policy
- When the policies go out, both can be sent to you together, so you only have to worry about insurance once a year
- Aligned renewal dates
- Potential complimentary features, like disappearing deductible- which means that your deductible decreases by 20% every year that you are claims free, until you have no deductible
