Personal Insurance for All Stages of Life

Home & Property

Your home is arguably your most valuable investment. Keep it protected with the best insurance policies. Homeowner’s insurance covers a private residence. It is a package policy that covers damage and losses to your house and property, as well as your legal responsibility for any injuries or property damage sustained by others while at your residence.

Our home insurance partners offer a variety of coverage options, including:

  • Dwelling coverage- for structural damage to your house, as well as coverage for other non-business structures on your property in case of fire, weather, water, and other damages excluding flooding.
  • Personal property insurance- against fire, theft, and loss, with limitations regarding valuable items.
  • Liability protection- in the event that someone makes a claim against you for injuries or damage sustained in your home or on your property.
  • Additional coverages for money spent on reasonable repairs, damage to trees and shrubbery, collapse, debris removal, fire department changes, etc.

Mobile Home Insurance

Mobile homes are susceptible to damages and incidents that houses aren’t. We can keep your mobile, manufactured, or modular home protected from the unexpected. Mobile home insurance is similar to standard home insurance, but the increased risk of severe weather damage, fire, and theft proven to affect mobile homes leads to a need for more unique insurance options.

Our carriers offer mobile home insurance options including:

  • Trip collision coverage, which insures your home as it is transported from the factory to your location.
  • Vendor’s single interest coverage, which protects against various types of fraud, including a lienholder’s right to repossess the manufactured home.
  • Dwelling coverage for structural damage to your mobile home, as well as coverage for other, non-business structures on your property in case of fire, weather, water, and other damages excluding flooding.
  • Additional coverages for money spent on reasonable repairs, damage to trees and shrubbery, collapse, debris removal, fire department changes, etc.
  • Personal property insurance against fire, theft, and loss, with limitations regarding valuable items.
  • Liability protection in the event that someone makes a claim against you for injuries or damage sustained in your mobile home or on your property.
  • Coverage for loss of use and additional living expenses if the space was rented out, excluding utility fees.
  • Additional coverages for money spent on reasonable repairs, damage to trees and shrubbery, collapse, debris removal, fire department changes, etc.

Landlord Insurance

Renting out properties is a great way to turn a profit on large investments, but things can go wrong quickly when natural disasters and bad renters cause damage. Protect your properties with affordable landlord’s insurance. Landlord’s insurance protects you from financial loss associated with rental properties you own. Policies typically cover the entire building, as well as any interior property you own, such as washers, dryers, and furniture.

Our carriers can protect you from the following, as well as additional coverages:

  • Fire
  • Storm
  • Explosion
  • Flood
  • Earthquake
  • Water damage
  • Malicious damage or theft by tenant
  • Liability in the case of harm or damage to tenant’s personal property

Renters’ Insurance

When you rent, you put yourself and your property in unknown territory. Protect your assets from the unexpected with renters’ insurance. Renters’ insurance is like homeowner’s insurance, but you take it with you even if you move. It protects your personal property and provides most of the benefits of home insurance, including liability insurance. However, it does not protect the dwelling or structure of the home itself, which is the landlord’s responsibility to insure.

Our carriers can protect renters and their property against the following:

  • Fire
  • Theft
  • Vandalism
  • Liability if someone is hurt or accrues damage to personal property in your rental home
  • Additional living expenses (if you have to live somewhere else while the home is repaired, for example)

Earthquake Insurance

The powerful and unpredictable nature of earthquakes can bring destruction to your home in the blink of an eye. Keep your assets protected in the face of disaster with earthquake insurance. Earthquake insurance protects your home and belongings from the damage that occurs when an earthquake hits. Like flooding, earthquake coverage is excluded from most comprehensive home insurance policies. Earthquake insurance usually comes with a fairly high deductible, so this insurance may not be on your radar unless your home resides in an area where earthquakes are likely. Still, all 50 states are susceptible to earthquakes, and damages caused by these natural disasters are not covered by your homeowner’s insurance. Adding earthquake insurance to your policy provides extra protection in case your home is damaged — or completely destroyed — by an earthquake. The rate for your deductible depends on your home’s location, its building materials, and the likelihood of an earthquake.

If you purchase earthquake insurance from one of our carriers, they will cover some or all of the following:

  • All damage to your home
  • Damage to other, non-business structures on your property
  • Damages to personal property
  • Increased costs to meet current building codes or stabilize land under your home
  • Cost to remove debris
  • Living expenses while your home is under repair

Farm Insurance

Your farm isn’t just your home — it’s your livelihood. Whether your farm is large or small, discover how to protect your land and all its assets with our insurance policies. Your farm or ranch is a hybrid of home and business, so you need a unique policy to keep it protected from every angle. Our insurance providers offer policies that protect every farm, from small startups to industrial production growers. You’ve invested thousands, or even millions, of dollars in your land, animals, and equipment. Protect your investments from the unexpected with an insurance policy that covers it all. Talk to an agent about product availability and how much coverage is right for you based on your farm’s value and risk factors.

When you purchase farm insurance from our carriers, a wide variety of assets can be covered, including:

  • Farm, home, and personal property
  • Detached garages, farm, and ranch structures
  • Machinery and equipment rented or owned
  • Livestock
  • Farm interruption, loss to farm products, and/or loss of income
  • Liability in the event that someone is hurt or accrues damage to personal property on your farm
  • Protection against unwarranted claims of animal abuse or land misuse
  • Liability for food products you sell or process for others
  • Commercial and farm automobiles
  • Agritourism and more

Valuable Items Insurance

Jewelry, artwork, cameras, firearms, collectors’ items…your home is full of things you value that go beyond the basics. Keep them protected with Valuable Items insurance. Homeowner’s insurance policies offer protection for your personal belongings, but only to an extent. While it may cover your furniture, clothing, electronics, and appliances, you likely won’t be fully compensated for damage or loss to those expensive odds and ends that you value on a more personal level.

Our carriers can insure your valuable items either individually or as a collection, depending on the coverage you need. In the case of loss, theft, or everyday damage, you can claim insurance on items like:

  • Antiques
  • Instruments
  • Jewelry
  • Sports equipment
  • Bicycles
  • Coin collections and more

Dwelling Fire Insurance

Coverage for even the most extreme, unexpected circumstances. Although dwelling fire insurance sounds a lot like insurance that protects a home from fire damage, that’s not all there is to it. Dwelling fire insurance covers several different areas that you may not even think would happen to your home. It is meant for homes that are vacated, rented, and seasonally used. Not just owner-occupied.

Offers Coverage For:

  • Fire and Smoke Related Damage
  • Explosions
  • Vandalism
  • Wind and Lightning Damage
  • Equipment Breakdown

Umbrella Insurance

What Is Umbrella Insurance?

The term “umbrella insurance” may sound a bit funny, but it is actually an incredibly important policy, especially if you are someone with a lot to lose or are in need of extra liability coverage. Umbrella insurance, also known as excess liability coverage, is designed to keep you and your valuables protected if ever you reach your auto and homeowner insurance liability limit. Your assets including college funds, retirement savings, and more could be at risk without having umbrella insurance to make sure it stays safe and secure from a serious lawsuit.

What It Covers

  • Bodily Injuries – covers the cost of medical bills and/or liability claims as a result of injuries from a second party member.
  • Damage to property – covers the cost of damage to property, accidental or otherwise, created by an outside force or member.

  • Owners of rental units – helps protect against liability claims as a result of issues created by outside forces or members.
  • Defense coverage – covers attorney fees and other legal costs
  • Worldwide coverage – coverage for incidents that have happened abroad.

Identity Theft Recovery Coverage

You would want to insure your most valuable items against theft. Why not your identity and personal records, too? If you or someone you know has ever dealt with identity theft, you know it can be an enormous expense of time and money to get things back to normal. Identity Recovery Coverage (IDR) is designed to help you through the process of recovering your stolen information, correcting your credit score and personal records, and covering costs associated with the information theft. IDR is available for a very low premium, and can easily be added to your pre-existing homeowner’s or renter’s insurance policy.

Our IDR case managers can assist you with:

  • Contacting and writing letters on your behalf to credit bureaus, government agencies, and law enforcement
  • Ordering copies of your credit report to review recent activity
  • Closing accounts that you believe have been tampered with
  • Providing legal referrals for assistance with court appearances, etc.
  • Keeping detailed records of the progress of your case

Associated costs we cover include:

  • Lost wages due to dealing with the identity theft
  • Certain legal fees; for example, your defense costs if a lawsuit is brought against you by a creditor
  • Phone calls
  • Re-filing of requests for loans, credit applications, and other documentation

Life

Insuring Your Life

Be there for your loved ones, even after you’re gone.

Life insurance is the one form of insurance policy that has nothing to do with protecting you, but financially protecting your beneficiaries if you die. There are several different kinds of life insurance, but the most common are term insurance and permanent insurance.

Term insurance provides only protection and flexible premiums for a specific period of time, during which, if you die, your beneficiaries will be awarded a benefit. People usually opt for term life insurance until they reach a point where they consider it “safe” to withdraw, such as when their home is paid off or their children graduate from college. Permanent life insurance provides lifelong protection to beneficiaries and is priced for you to keep over a long period of time. This type of insurance acquires cash value, and the premiums are usually fixed.

Why Is It Important?

Life insurance is important to different people for different reasons. Some people may opt to never have life insurance at all. Depending on your financial goals and family situation, your policies and premiums will differ. If you’re afraid of leaving behind a large debt or taking a safety net away from your beneficiaries, you may want to consider buying life insurance.

Annuity Insurance

Grow your funds. An annuity is a policy in which you put money into in order to grow those funds and receive them as income. That income can be received either immediately or at a later time with a rate of return, such as during retirement. You can choose to either pay a lump sum or a number of payments paid yearly.

Types of Annuities

Immediate Annuity- A long-term contract that provides guaranteed payments almost immediately after making your first payment. These payments can be received either over a lifetime or within a specified period of time.

Deferred Annuity- Lets you choose when you want the payments to start coming in, usually upon retirement after earning tax-deferred interest.

Fixed Annuity- The insurance company takes the investment risk by placing money into a fixed rate, such as in a bond. It guarantees a minimum interest rate you will earn over time.

Variable Annuity- Tax-deferred retirement plan that allows you to choose from different retirement options that pay you based on how well your investments do. These investments may include stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or money markets.

Disability Insurance

Financial stability in tough times. Everyone relies on a paycheck to provide for them, but what happens when that paycheck stops due to a disability? Mortgage, rent, or car payments don’t go away. Disability insurance is designed to protect those who experience a disability that prevents them from performing their job’s core responsibilities. Most people don’t have months of savings to back them up. So rather than use retirement savings early, you can rely on disability insurance to help you cover those large monthly payments.

Short-Term Disability

Short-term disability policies typically offer 1 and 3-year benefit periods. It covers monthly debts, such as car and home payments, during your recovery period from an illness or injury.

Long-Term Care Plans

Make sure you are protected and cared for throughout your times of need. Long-term care allows you the care you’ll need if you become chronically ill or unable to perform necessary activities without assistance.

What it offers:

  • The ability to preserve your savings
  • The ability to maintain independence
  • The assistance you need from caring providers

Short-Term Care

Receive the disability care you need until your recovery period is through. Short-Term care is disability coverage for a short period of time. This will cover your income once you have expended sick-leave at your place of employment.

What It Offers:

  • Coverage of income after sick-day expenditure
  • Coverage for a minimum of 12 months during injury or illness
  • Payments for rent, car loans, and more

Universal Life Insurance

Coverage that saves you and your money. Also referred to as a “UL” policy, a Universal Life Insurance plan is a flexible form of permanent life insurance. It allows you to protect your loved ones and build tax-deferred cash value by paying additional money to a life insurance premium to “overfund the policy.” That additional money builds cash value, along with interest, that may be borrowed from or used to subsidize your life insurance policy cost in the future. You may also temporarily decrease your payments or occasionally skip a payment, as long as you repay any money taken from your cash value.

Policies Typically Offer:

  • Flexible premiums
  • Death benefit
  • Tax-deferred investment opportunity

Universal Life Insurance Can be Used For:

  • Lost income for mortgage costs and educational needs
  • Access to cash value for life’s opportunities
  • Estate, special needs, and business planning

Term-Life Insurance

Protection for only when you need it. Term-Life Insurance is one of the most affordable types of insurance and provides protection during the “term” during which you pay premiums for.

Term life insurance may be the right fit for you if you are looking for:

  • Guaranteed coverage for a specific amount of time or to cover specific financial obligations
  • Affordability and payments guaranteed not to change
  • In addition to a work-provided life insurance plan
  • Short-term coverage for debts or other needs
  • Provide for loss of income
  • Offer protection to help pay off a mortgage or college loans

Common types of term life insurance include:

Basic Term Life: paid by your employer for a set period of time to provide your beneficiaries plenty financial support.

Supplemental Term Life: paid by you as the employee to allow you to purchase coverage as needed according to your situation in life.

Dependent Term Life: Provides coverage for your spouse, partner, or eligible children.

Mortgage Term Life:  Provides funds to help pay a mortgage in the event of a premature death. The death benefit begins decreasing after 5 years of coverage, earning it the name “decreasing term” policy.

Whole-Life Insurance

Coverage for a lifetime Sometimes called “straight life” or “ordinary life,” Whole-Life Insurance covers your entire lifetime. It helps those you leave behind to deal with expenses and loss of income by building cash value that grows tax-deferred and can be accessed throughout your lifetime.

Benefits of Whole-Life Insurance

  • Premiums and death benefits are fixed
  • Funds can be withdrawn or loaned out
  • The rate of return is guaranteed

Final Expense

Coverage that helps you in the end. Did you know that funerals now cost between $7,000-$10,000? After losing a loved one, trying to cover such a massive expense can be a lot to take on. The last thing you need during a hard time is more added stress. In the difficult time, final expense life insurance is there to help make your darker days a little brighter.

Children’s Life Insurance

Insurance begins when they do. Children’s life insurance can be purchased two different ways: through your term life or whole life insurance. A certain amount of your money for both policies can be extended to your child. That way once the child is old enough, they can become the policy owner. Many find having life insurance for children is very beneficial because it locks in a child’s ability to qualify for more life insurance later. It also provides much-needed savings and funding for expenses later on down the road. You don’t have to wait to purchase life insurance. When you begin putting back now for your child, the better coverage they will have down the road. Ensure their future now by adding Children’s Life Insurance to your plan today.

Benefits of Children’s Life Insurance

  • Builds cash value
  • Guarantees coverage for life
  • Locks in affordable premium

Health Insurance

Feel Better with Good Health Insurance

You will thank yourself later. Health Insurance Association of America defines health insurance as “coverage that provides for the payments of benefits as a result of sickness or injury” as well as “insurance for losses from accident, medical expense, disability, or accidental death and dismemberment.” It is broken up into two main categories: Fee-for-Service and Managed Care. Although both plans are not entirely like the others, they both can cover areas such as medical, surgical, and hospital expenses as well as a prescription drug and dental coverage. As people, we are susceptible to accidents and illness whether we like it or not. Although it would be nice to plan for such instances, that is not always possible. When or if that moment comes and you find yourself without health insurance, you might be facing serious consequences on top of your pre-existing issues.
