MetLife Auto & Home

One of the companies I represent is MetLife Home and Auto. It’s possible when I work up quotes for you, they will come in with the best policies and prices. As a consumer, it’s nice to know a little bit about the company who is covering your property.

In 1863, a group of New York City business men organized the National Union Life and Limb Insurance company. They started selling policies to Civil War sailors and soldiers to protect against wartime disabilities. In 1868, the company changed from a casualty business to focus on life insurance. They named their new endeavor, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. By 1879, they began  selling industrial insurance door to door. These person to person meetings were so successful, that in 1909 Met Life had the largest number of life insurance in force in North America. They retain that position today.

They are now a global company with more than 90 million customers in more than 50 countries.

I work directly with MetLife Auto and Home and here is some information about their GrandProtect package: (They have others and when you call for a quote, I’ll see which would be the best policy/policies at the best price/prices for you.)

GrandProtect® personal insurance protection in one convenient package, with features that meet your asset protection needs and simplifies your complex insurance needs, including your home valuable items, autos, RVs, and boats, by offering one comprehensive policy package.

A GrandProtect policy may be right for you if you’re seeking:

  • A higher level of coverage that goes beyond our standard policies
  • Comprehensive protection for your property in one policy package
  • One deductible for any one loss, even if more than one type of property is
    damaged  (ask me about these details)
  • Simplicity of one bill for your personal insurance needs
  • All of your personal insurance written by one provider: MetLife Auto & Home

Call (507-226-8121) or email ([email protected]) to find out if a MetLife Auto and Home policy is the right policy at the right price for you.

Travelers – A Repost With an Update

By

I opened the doors to DeKok Insurance Group over 5 years ago. One of my goals was to be directly appointed with companies that would provide my future clients with the best policies at the best prices. Travelers is one of the companies that has done that this past year. They are one of the 15 companies I work with as an independent agent and the partership is serving my clients well.

I posted the folllowing information here last Februrary. I wanted to share it with you again today.

Jon

Travelers Insurance Company is over 150 years old and has Minnesota roots. In 1853, then secretary of the Minnesota Territory, Alexander Wilkin saw the need for a local company to provide insurance coverage in case of fire. He and 16 other St. Paul businessmen established the St. Paul Fire and Marine Company. In 1866, they expanded insurance protection to include all accidents. According to the Travelers website, two claims of interest from those days include a ticket agent who broke his leg while trying to stop a runaway horse, and a carpenter who broke his collar bone when after getting tangled up in his dance partner’s hoop skirt.

In 1969, Travelers issued the first policy for space flight, lunar exploration, and the Apollo Astronauts.

Thirty years later, Travelers (in a joint effort with Bond and Personal Ins) was the first to offer Identity Fraud Expense Reimbursement coverage.

Travelers is represented by over 13,000 independent agencies and brokerages nationwide and they have reps in every U.S. state, as well as in Canada, Ireland, and the U.K.

You can learn more about their history here.

A Bird in My Hand

By

This little bird flew into our window. I went out to see if I could help him. I picked him up and rubbed his tiny chest gently. He responded by sitting up and then resting for a bit in my hand before I set him on a branch of the nearest lilac bush. A few minutes later, he fluffed up his feathers and flew away.

I’m so glad I had the chance to help him, and I’d like to help you find a better insurance policy for a better price.
