First State Agency

Tips for Finding an Agent

• Make sure they specialize in the coverage you need
• 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 quite difficult to get coverage reinstated and insurance rates could be significantly higher than before.
