Unfortunately, our industry has become almost famous for being somewhat cold, non-personal, and distant with their customers. We feel this is still about the relationships built with our customers and view our clients as people that we care about. Our goal is always to build trust that we are working in your best interest. You matter to us.
We are constantly amazed at the number of people we work with that say they have never had an agent take time with them, ask questions, listen, and explain coverages. Yes, we do things a bit differently here and feel it a duty to understand the needs of those we work with. It is only when we have a clear understanding of your specific scenario that we can serve you properly. There are some that just want a price, and that’s fine, but you’ll know we are here for guidance as well, should you need it. Of course, the goal is always to provide you with proper protection at the lowest price.

Why Use Our Independent NY Insurance Agency For Your Insurance In New York?
When people use the big national “captive” companies for their policies, most don’t realize these insurers have only one option to offer for any type of product such as auto, home, and business policies. So for instance, your auto proposal with them is the only option they have for you. Say you take the policy without comparing with other companies and term after term the premium increases rather sharply even though you’ve had no tickets or accidents. Guess what? They can’t help you out. It’s like shopping for a car at a dealer that has only one type of car. If it’s a good price and runs well for many years that’s great. But, if it’s an expensive car compared to other similar cars and tends to have mechanical failures, you are stuck.
Many people get stuck with these big national insurers and it’s understandable. They run constant TV commercials, internet ads, print ads, billboards, etc. Folks, without any comparison, simply assume they must be the best and offer the best products at the best price with the best customer and claims service. They have built their brand and people trust them. Yet, have you noticed their advertising has little or nothing to do about coverage, products, service, or what you can expect from them. Many of the commercials are clever but won’t help you if you are paying too much, have bad service, or want a different option.Read More Our slogan is “Expect More” much for this reason. We are an independent NY insurance agency that offers options from highly targeted and A-Rated insurers. What’s more is that we care about educating our clients making sure they understand what their coverages are and if we feel they are adequate for their protection. We listen so we know what’s most important to you. Our experience helps guide us to the top product/products for you. You have options with us and will never have to feel “stuck” if a specific company begins to raise rates. Great customer service and building relationships is just as important to us as finding you options with big savings. We have modeled our process in to one that integrates the top insurers, experience, communication, education, service, and caring. That is what we’ve put together for you and hope that you give us an opportunity to show what we can do for you.

Frequently Asked Questions Of Our NY Insurance Agency (FAQ) :
The monthly automatic option is an electronic transfer of your payment directly from your checking account and eliminates any monthly bill installments fees which adds up to a good savings amount over the term of the policy.
Unfortunately, these costs are spread among all policyholders, even the ones that don’t put in claims or get tickets and dutifully pay their premiums every time and on time. It doesn’t seem fair and we agree with our claim-free customers who voice their displeasure, sometimes loudly!
Yes, prices of everything seems to increase and as the cost of living goes up, one would expect a small increase in renewal premiums due to inflation, but not big price swings.
Being an independent agency with access to multiple carriers, this is an area where we can help. In the event one of our insurers begins to raise premiums on a scale that’s above the norm from others in the market, we can re-shop for our clients to affirm whether or not they still have the best overall deal for them.
If we find a better option with another company, we can simply switch you to that company.
We have hand-picked our A-Rated companies and are directly appointed to the ones we feel are the best for the people of New York for both price and coverage options. We do not use automated rating tools that sometimes result in a higher premium or miss important endorsements, instead we manually quote for your best option. It takes a bit longer, but won’t cost you more, in fact, we feel it gives you an additional benefit.
Our experience is also a benefit to our clients and those seeking a NY insurance quote. With the multitude of major rating factors combined with discount eligibility, our experience has taught us how to compare and contrast these elements from amongst our targeted companies to give you the absolute best deal we can find.
Last but not least, we’re an agency that cares, cares about you as a person, cares that you are properly protected, and cares that your experience with us is a good one.
