As Of Today...........

we're NOT in good hands anymore. Allstate notified us several months ago that they would no longer be providing "wind" coverage for our county. Our agent was quick to offer that there were "options." This turned out to be coverage provided by a third party that Allstate contracted with............ at almost twice our current rate. Seriously.  Our premium rate was going to increase from $2800/year to $5200/year for the exact same coverage!

I'm happy to say, though, that I shopped around and was able to find a much better deal by going with an independent agent who did not have any loyalties to a "big name" company. Our homeowner's premium increase was only $50/month over our current rate. AND, because he was able to find us such a better rate on our automobile policies, we are not paying any more (total) than we have been paying. Yea God! That is definitely an answered prayer!
