Tips for Finding an Agent

• Check for advanced agent licenses like CLU or ChFC
• If the agent is too busy to sit down with you, find a different agent
• Independent insurance agents are not tied to one company
• Captive agents are limited to a single company's rates
• Check to see how long the agent has been in business

Insurance Buying Tip

If at all possible, never allow your home or auto policies to expire. It may be impossible to get insurance again in Maine and insurance rates could be significantly higher than before. Call Association Services at (207) 871-7609 or visit them in Portland for more information.
