Why an Independent Insurance Agent?

WE ARE INDEPENDENT AGENTS & BROKERS

Some people think it really doesn't matter where they buy their insurance. But this misconception could be costing them money, service and protection. Buying insurance isn't like buying bread or milk. Insurance is an important safety net for your family, your home, your car or your business. Don't treat the purchase lightly.

There is a difference in where you buy your protection. Many people don't realize there are various sources for insurance:

  1. INDEPEPENDENT INSURANCE AGENTS, who represent many insurance companies and compare those companies' products to find you the best combination of price, coverage and service.
  2. CAPTIVE AGENTS, who can sell you the insurance of only one company.
  3. TELEPHONE REPRESENTATIVES, who can offer you the insurance of one company, and only on the telephone.
  4. INSURANCE BROKER, like Tri-Town Insurance car write policies with any licensed company, not just the ones they are the agents of.
  5. CONSULTANT - A NYS licensed consultant will review your coverage and exposure for a preset fee to give you a true 3rd party evaluation.
