Frequently Asked Questions
Auto insurance typically covers liability (bodily injury and property damage to others), collision (damage to your vehicle from accidents), comprehensive (damage from theft, weather, animals), uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, and medical payments. As an independent agency, we compare policies from multiple carriers to find the right combination of coverages for your needs.
Kentucky requires minimum liability coverage of 25/50/25 — that's $25,000 per person for bodily injury, $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, and $25,000 for property damage. However, we typically recommend higher limits to better protect your assets. Your agent can help determine the right coverage level for your situation.
Key factors include your driving record, age, vehicle type, annual mileage, credit history, coverage levels, and where you live. Because we represent 15++ carriers, we can compare rates across companies to find you the most competitive price for your specific profile.
Common ways to reduce your premium include bundling auto and home insurance, maintaining a clean driving record, increasing your deductible, asking about available discounts (good student, safe driver, multi-car), and reviewing your coverage annually with your agent to ensure you're not over-insured.
Standard homeowners insurance covers your dwelling (the structure), personal property (belongings), liability (if someone is injured on your property), and additional living expenses (if your home is uninhabitable). Flood and earthquake coverage typically require separate policies.
Your coverage should be enough to rebuild your home at current construction costs — not the purchase price or market value. Your agent will calculate replacement cost based on your home's size, construction type, and local building costs.
Replacement cost pays to repair or replace damaged property at current prices. Actual cash value deducts depreciation, paying you what the item is worth today, which is often significantly less. We generally recommend replacement cost coverage for both your home and personal property.
Term life provides coverage for a set period (10, 20, or 30 years) and is generally the most affordable option. Whole life provides permanent coverage with a cash value component that grows over time. Your agent can help determine which type best fits your family's needs and budget.
A common guideline is 10 to 12 times your annual income, but the right amount depends on your debts, dependents, future expenses like college tuition, and your family's ongoing income needs. Your agent can walk you through a needs analysis to determine the appropriate coverage amount.
The annual Open Enrollment Period for ACA marketplace plans typically runs from November 1 to January 15. Outside of open enrollment, you can enroll if you experience a qualifying life event such as marriage, birth of a child, or loss of other coverage. Medicare enrollment has its own timeline.
An HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) generally requires you to use in-network providers and get referrals to see specialists. A PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) offers more flexibility to see out-of-network providers, typically at a higher cost. Your agent can help compare plans from carriers in your area.
Most businesses need general liability, commercial property, and workers' compensation at minimum. Depending on your industry, you may also need professional liability, commercial auto, cyber liability, or industry-specific coverage. Your agent will assess your business risks and recommend appropriate coverage.
A BOP bundles general liability and commercial property coverage into a single policy, often at a lower premium than purchasing them separately. It's designed for small to mid-sized businesses and can be customized with additional endorsements for your specific needs.
Costs vary widely based on your industry, business size, revenue, number of employees, location, and coverage levels. A small retail shop might pay $500 to $2,000 per year for basic coverage, while a contractor could pay significantly more. We compare quotes from multiple carriers to find competitive rates.
