A lot of families we serve live on one side of the river and relax on the other. Here is the part that surprises people: your cabin is not simply your house with a different address. Insurance companies look at how a property is actually used.

Is it empty for weeks at a time?

Does the family use it when you are not there?

Is there a dock, a boat, a fire pit, a four-wheeler?

How far is the nearest fire station?

Each of those changes the policy you need. A place written as if someone lives there year-round may not respond the way you expect when it sits quiet in November.

We are licensed in both Minnesota and Wisconsin, so we can review both properties together rather than one at a time.

My teenager and I were recently having a candid conversation about car owner responsibilities when he asked, "Why did the car insurance go up?"

I told him to look in the mirror.

He did look at himself in the mirror, then turned back to me, and asked, "So, are you going to tell me, or is this another one of those 'adult need-to-know situations'?"

All the laughing aside, adding a young driver is one of the biggest jumps a family policy can take, but there are a few real ways to soften the blow.

Good grades count. πŸŽ“
So does the car you put them in. πŸš—

Parents of new drivers: what surprised you most about your policy? We want to hear from you. πŸ‘‡

WHY Insurance?

Protecting families is really what makes this job mean something to me. Anybody can sell someone an insurance policy, but what matters is being there when a family has a fire, an accident, a major storm, or one of those days they never thought would happen to them.

WHY Farmers?

I want our clients to know that when that phone call comes, they have someone in their corner who knows them and will fight to take care of them. We’ve built our agency around relationships, not transactions, and I think that’s why so many families have trusted us over the years.

At the end of the day, helping protect what people have worked their whole lives to build is what makes this work worth doing.

You opened your renewal, the number was higher, and nothing about your house changed. You are not imagining it, and you are not being singled out.

Minnesota has had some of the fastest-rising home insurance costs in the country. Storms are more severe. Claims are more frequent. And it simply costs more to rebuild a house than it did a few years ago.

Here is what we can actually do about it:

β†’ We can review your deductibles, so you are not paying for protection you would never use.

β†’ We can check every discount you qualify for.

β†’ We can look at whether recent updates to your home change the picture.

What we will not do is quietly cut your coverage to make a number look better.

If we would not recommend it to our grandmother, we will not recommend it to you.

Storm season left a lot of quiet damage behind this June. 🌩️

Here is the part most people do not know: your claim clock started the day of the storm, not the day you notice a problem. Wait until spring, and you may have fewer options than you had in August.

Hail is sneaky.
Look for granules in the gutter, dents on vent caps, and soft spots up top.

This week: write down the storm date, walk your property, take photos, and call us before you call anyone else. We will tell you straight whether filing is worth it β€” and sometimes we will tell you it is not.

Did your street get hit in June? Tell us where you are, and we will let you know what we are seeing in your area. πŸ‘‡

Quick homework assignment. πŸ“„

Pull out your homeowners policy and look for a separate wind and hail deductible. A lot of Minnesota policies carry one now, and it is often a percentage of your home's value instead of a flat dollar amount.

On a $500,000 home, a 1% deductible means $5,000 out of pocket before coverage starts.

Three more things worth knowing:

1️⃣ Some policies pay the depreciated value of an older roof, not the cost of a new one.
2️⃣ Some exclude matching β€” hail hits one side of your siding, and you may only be paid for that side.
3️⃣ Some exclude dents that are only cosmetic.

None of that means your policy is bad. It means you should know what it says before a storm, not after.

Bring it in, and we will read it with you. No pressure, no pitch.
