Questions

Good to know before we talk

Does it cost extra to work with an agent?

No separate fee is charged for quotes or advice. Agents are compensated by the insurance carrier, and premiums are set by that carrier.

Can you review a policy I already have?

Yes. Share your current declarations page and we will explain what it covers, point out possible gaps and compare alternatives if you would like.

Is bundling home and auto always cheaper?

Often, but not always. We price bundled and separate options so you can see the difference before deciding.

What should I have ready for a quote?

Basic details about your home or vehicles, drivers in the household and any current policy information. We will ask for anything else as we go.

Will you help if I need to make a claim?

Yes. Claims are handled by the carrier, but we help you prepare, explain next steps and follow up when you need a hand.
