Competition = Lower Costs
The insurance industry includes hundreds of different companies hoping to earn your business. It is a very competitive market and it pays to shop around for the very best deals. This is where we come in.
Whether you're searching for Life Insurance, Annuities, IRA's and other retirement strategies, Health Insurance, you must be well-informed and well-advised to get the most out of your premium dollars. An experienced and independent agent who represents multiple insurance carriers can make a huge difference in what you pay for coverage.
Medicare Insurance
Medicare by itself has a high deductible for hospital admission, and it only pays 80% of eligible doctor costs. A serious illness could set you back many thousands of dollars. A Medicare Supplement policy covers all or most out-of-pocket medical expenses providing you with peace-of-mind and potential savings. Let us guide you in sorting through the numerous Medicare options. We can also help you in choosing a Medicare prescription plan that includes your specific medications.
Mortgage Protection Insurance
The Insurance of yesterday was payable only one way, upon the death of the policy owner. The Insurance of today is designed to provide assistance to the living. Sadly, unforeseen situations happen un-announced. Diagnosis of cancer, sudden stroke, pandemic diseases and other things that no one asks for but truly change the direction in what will need to happen the following day and all days thereafter. Cronic, critical and terminal illnesses are provided with Mortgage Insurance so that those living won't have to worry about losing what the family has worked so hard to secure.
Final Expense Insurance

Your family will always come first. You wouldn't want them to bear huge and unexpected financial burdens at the time of your passing. No matter what your age, it's absolutely essential to have a plan in place to protect your loved ones when you are no longer able. Final Expense insurance will pay for your funeral service, bills and other associated costs.
Why Should I Call This Agency for Insurance?
Good question. There are a lot of insurance agents out there and it may seem like any agent or broker is as good as another.
Let's face it, insurance jargon can be very confusing. We know the ins and outs of the insurance business, and our inside knowledge of many companies and many products will work to your advantage. In fact, different insurance companies often charge vastly different premiums for the exact same coverage. As independent agents we are not employed by one particular company. Instead, we can select insurance products from among those companies that best address your unique concerns.
We promise to focus our attention on your individual needs.

A Month Celebrating Life Insurance |
|
This month is significant for all of us who have concerns about the future and what it means to us and our loved ones.
September is Life Insurance Awareness Month. This month is designed to educate people about life insurance and help them make the right coverage choices. Remember, to a large extent, preparation is what life insurance is all about. Life insurance is personal protection that will be there even if something should happen to you. It can help pay for high “final expenses” (e.g., funeral and burial), and prevent them from becoming a burden to those you leave behind. Contact me during this Life Insurance Awareness Month. Let’s discuss why life insurance can be important to you. This is a great time to learn more about life insurance – what it really is, and how it works for you. |
