Can people please enlighten me on the following. When I request an insurance quote from EBN, Honan, etc, it includes a brokerage fee, because the insurance is underwritten by a third party - an insurance firm. Wouldn't it thus cost less to buy the same product by dealing directly with the insurance firm who will be insuring the property? eg Allianz, QBE, etc. However I don't get the impression that insured parties do this.
Thanks for any forthcoming responses.
