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
• Agents with more experience are better at spotting coverage gaps

Insurance Buying Tip

If at all possible, never allow your home or auto policies to lapse. It may be quite difficult to get coverage reinstated and insurance rates could be significantly higher than before. Call Surplus Insurance Service at (512) 266-4731 or visit them in Austin for insurance options.
