Since 1974, CheapInsurance.com has been providing cheap insurance quotes and affordable coverage options to Americans across the U.S.
That’s 50 years of finding the best insurance quotes at the cheapest rates. If you’re wanting to find cheap insurance quotes quickly and easily, CheapInsurance.com has got you covered!
Our roots at CheapInsurance.com trace back to 1974 when our original owner Dave Hosford rebranded his local insurance brokerage in Sacramento, California, as ‘Cheap Insurance Agency’.
He believed that there was a need to provide the best quality insurance to whom he described as ‘unlucky drivers’, whom he regarded as drivers who were prone to high accident rates, moving violations, had specialty vehicles, or who were generally hard to insure.
Our original motto was ‘Not cheap insurance, but insurance for cheap’.
Highly successful business model providing quality car insurance at affordable prices grows in Northern California.
Cheap Insurance Agency opens multiple local offices in the Sacramento area.
Offices begin writing over 500 car insurance policies per month.
Cheap Insurance Agency opens more California
locations in San Jose, Auburn, Merced, Rancho Cordova, Concord, San Pablo, San Leandro, Oroville, Chico, and Lodi.
Cheap Insurance Agency begins a collaborative program with the California Association of Drinking Drivers Treatment Programs, providing assistance for drivers convicted of a DUI seeking to find a path to improve and repair their lives.
The first CheapInsurance.com website redesign
focuses on improved consumer options and support,
with a focus on quality.
Company motto changes to ‘Not just the Cheapest, the
Best’.
Hosford chooses to retire, selling Cheap Insurance Agency to Fausto Bucheli Jr.
With a goal of growing the agency and providing quality insurance products to California consumers, Bucheli opens a new office in North Sacramento.
In 2006, Bucheli purchases several existing local insurance agencies, expanding Cheap Insurance Agency's California presence with an additional two offices in Stockton, another office in San Jose, and locations in Santa Rosa and Fremont.
Along with the negative impact of the 2007 recession, Cheap Insurance Agency begins researching methods to serve an ever-growing client base and establish a potential national footprint
After a significant study in 2009 on how to best optimize service for insurance customers, Cheap Insurance Agency begins to operate a dual insurance model by:
• Staffing a large California local agency office in Sacramento.
• Providing California insurance services through phone, e-commerce, and fax.
• Providing insurance quotes and policies through a national insurance network directly using national insurance carriers.
The dual model continues to evolve and improve, enabling national consumer demand to quickly overtake the local California market.
With another website redesign and optimization, Cheap Insurance Agency becomes CheapInsurance.com
This dual model becomes known as ‘Insurance In Your Inbox’.

“Your company has handled my insurance policies for a number of years.
During that time I have worked with a number of agents.
Recently, I have been dealing with Randy, and I felt a need to let you know how pleased I am with the services he has provided.
He is courteous, efficient, and very helpful. He always keeps his word and takes time to ensure that I understand various aspects and options related to my insurance matters.
He has always been very punctual in keeping our telephone appointments. It is always easy to contact him.
I appreciate his service and I am most grateful for his assistance with a recent unfortunate situation.
Inadequate follow-up professionally left me in a very damaging and stressful position. Randy developed a strategy, which basically took care of the problem.
Randy takes his job very seriously. He makes it clear that his major goal is to represent the company well. He takes pride in giving clients outstanding service. Randy Pozo is a true asset to your company.
I am happy to have him as my agent.”
