I檓 looking to purchase a car in the near future, in fact I檓 going to look at some this weekend. Background info, I live in Massachusetts, this is my first car I檓 buying, but I檝e had a license for eight years, and a clean record. In my state (as I believe in all others, though I cannot say for sure), I cannot drive a car if it is uninsured, and I cannot register a car I would buy until it檚 insured. I believe the following to be true, and if it檚 not, please let me know.
In my state, after purchasing a car from a dealer, I will get a filled application from the dealer for registration and title. After getting this application, I need to insure the car, and bring it to a state licensed insurance agent, so that they can stamp and sign said application. Then I can go to the registry and get the car registered/title transferred, and get the plates, so that I can return to the car, change the plates, and drive said car away. I will of course need the previous owner檚 title, or a certificate of origin to finish the transaction to transfer the title, and register the car. After which I檒l need to pass inspection. Then I檒l be in the clear.
Now my question is, if I try one of the various online companies that advertise on the internet, such as Esurance, Progressive, Allstate, Geico, etc, how could they come and stamp/sign the application? Does an agent come to my house, do I go to a local branch or office, or would I be better off getting this done with a local insurance company, and just switching over to a different insurance company after I get the car?
Priority is of course getting the car registered so that I can drive it, and thus, insured so it can be registered and the title transferred. My ability to keep my job is at stake right now, as my previous ride is no longer an option.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.Help with online insurance companies?

In most states, an electronic signature is acceptable, but I know MA is kind of a different state when it comes to auto insurance. I am sure they have offices that you can go to to sign/stamp the app if need be.Help with online insurance companies?

I don't know how old you are, but the younger you are, i know the more money you have to pay a month for insurance. The thing I hated about getting insurance was the fact that I had to pay a 500 dollar brokers fee, just for a broker to find me the best kind of insurance. Typically eveyone has pay this.
Recently I switched to a different company and because i went through a representative I didn't have to pay a broker's fee. Their going to ask you for a Solution Number and the Representatives Last Name
I'll give you my reps Solution Number SKMS1
Reps Last Name Is Tokmo
The Phone Number Is 1(877)855-8111
I here it's better to just press 0, when the operator comes on. But yeah, just do some shopping around, but for most part the info above is definitley an option, and just ask them if you have to pay a brokers fee. Hope this helps!
