Tips for Finding an Agent

• Ask coworkers for recommendations
• If the agent is too busy to sit down with you, find a different agent
• Independent insurance agents are not tied to one company
• Captive agents are limited to a single company's rates
• Ask for their license number and if they balk, find a new agent

Insurance Buying Tip

If at all possible, never allow your home or auto policies to expire. It may be impossible to get insurance again in South Carolina and the price you pay may be significantly higher than before.
