​If you're a renter, you may not think that renters insurance is important. After all, it's your landlord's job to pay for damages to the property, right? Yes and no. While landlords do typically have insurance policies in place on their properties, these policies might not cover all of your personal belongings or provide enough coverage to help you rebuild if something happens. Furthermore, even if your landlord had an insurance policy that covered everything they needed it would still be up to them whether or not they would make good on those obligations—and who wants to rely on someone else's goodwill? Renters insurance is one area where doing what seems like extra work today will pay off down the road when things go wrong tomorrow."

​We are now in the second week of the new year. Feel any different? Is your routine any different, has your diet changed or are you taking a new route to work each day? If not, why not?

As much as we want to kickstart something new at the stroke of  midnight for the New Year, what is the motivation behind it? Is it because it gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling, you want to feel part of the group all joining something, or because you crave something else? Something more. What is your motivation? We are all still saying “Happy New Year” to friends and business associates we have not seen recently, but again, are we doing anything different or just rolling same tired bad habits from 2021 into 2022?

​Blood may be thicker than water, but it is thinner than insurance contracts. An adult son or daughter may think that, when a loss happens, coverage is available from mom or dad's homeowners or auto policy. It usually isn't and finding this out after a loss makes matters much worse. Policies are typically clear. A relative is covered, but only if the relative is a full-time resident of the named insured's household. Even if a child lives next door, a parents' policy is not going to spread its coverage to take care of an adult child's belongings.​

The good news - you have decided to become a Landlord!  The bad news - now you have to get it rented!

How do you know whether the tenants are going to be good tenants?  While many of our carriers offer a Landlord policy, Foremost understands the Landlord Market and has upped the game a bit!  We can now offer discounted tenant screening through a partnership they have provided.

So you think Insurance is boring? Let me tell you what keeps Insurance Agents awake at night...and it's not the coffee!  Weather!

We watch the weather differently than BI (Before Insurance), knowing that along with the threat of  bad weather and the claims to come, not only do people want to add coverage, but they have a sudden desire to pay their premium as well!  There is something about a Tornado warning that creates that sense of urgency to make sure they still have coverage and they become most anxious to pay their premium!​
