There are major differences when buying homeowners insurance from USAA, Geico, and Darr Schackow Insurance Agency. Let’s start with USAA:
USAA does not write new homeowners insurance in Florida. USAA will broker it with ASI, which was bought by Progressive, and is now under the name Progressive Home. USAA only offers one choice for home insurance currently. You have to call a 1-800 number and will get a different person on the phone every time you call. They are typically customer service representatives, not fully licensed agents.
Geico also does not write new homeowners insurance in Florida. They will broker it with Security First insurance company. Geico also currently only offers one choice for home insurance. You have to call a 1-800 number and will get a different person on the phone every time you call. They are typically customer service representatives, not fully licensed agents. Are you seeing a trend?
Darr Schackow Insurance Agency is different. We represent both ASI/Progressive Home, Security First and about 20 other homeowners insurance companies in Florida. When you call Darr Schackow, you get a fully licensed insurance agent and you will keep that agent for as long as you do business with us. We don’t ship you off to a call center where you will get a different person every time you call.
Call Darr Schackow Insurance to get consistently good customer service and quotes for more companies from licensed agents.
