Tips for Finding an Agent

• Ask coworkers for recommendations
• 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 are limited to a single company's rates
• Check to see how long the agent has been in business
