When should I consider moving all my insurance policies to one independent insurance agency?

Consider moving your insurance to an independent agency when your current agent is not offering solutions to your insurance needs, is not making coverage recommendations or is not helping you get competitive pricing.

Key Takeaways

- Consider a move when your agent stops offering solutions.
- Missing coverage recommendations are a warning sign.
- An independent agency can shop several carriers for better pricing.

Consider moving your insurance to an independent agency when your current agent is not offering solutions to your insurance needs, is not making coverage recommendations or is not helping you get competitive pricing.

Signs it may be time

  • Your rates rise at renewal and no one explains why or shops alternatives
  • No one has reviewed your coverage in years
  • You have had a life change, such as a new home or a teen driver, without a coverage check
  • Your agent can only offer one company’s policies

What changes with an independent agency

An independent agency works with several carriers, so it can compare options whenever your needs or prices change.
