An independent insurance broker is an agent who provides a wide selection of policies from many different insurers to satisfy the customer’s requirements. On the other hand, captive agents or direct writers, including companies such as Allstate, Liberty Mutual, Farmers and USAA and Amica among others, are dedicated to one particular insurer and only offer that company’s insurance products.
How much does it cost to work with an independent insurance broker?
Using an independent insurance broker does not come at any additional cost compared to dealing with a direct write or captive insurance agent or going to the insurance company directly. We can make the process simpler for you by obtaining quotes from a variety of insurers, and we may even be able to find you a better deal than if you were to shop around on your own.
Why work with an independent insurance broker?

And we are involved in our community. We contribute to local companies, charities, and other groups and provide advice and assistance. We hire and spend our income in our communities.
