Tips for Finding an Agent

• Check license status with your state insurance regulator
• If the agent is too busy to sit down with you, find a different agent
• Independent agents generally work with more companies than captive agents
• Captive agents only work for one company
• Agents with more experience are better at spotting coverage gaps

Insurance Buying Tip

Consider packaging your home and auto coverage together to get bigger savings. Most companies that offer coverage in Illinois, and more specifically Ottawa, provide major savings when you combine your policies with the same company.
