Tips for Finding an Agent

• Do not rely on yellow page ads
• 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
• Ask for their license number and if they balk, find a new agent

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 Oregon and policy premiums may be significantly higher than before.

Call Consumer Choice at (503) 255-8010 or visit them in Portland to get an insurance review.
