I think they have Allied, Safeco, Travelers and Hartford maybe more. They are adding, man its a slick platform. If your looking for the ne...

Re: Zurich Ins...farmers Ins

The bright side is that 80% of farmers agents don't write commercial. So i don't hthink its that big of and impact to their agents. One reason why agents come and go with farmers, is quick training and the boot out the door your on your own. But you had better sell life insurance. So..... no they co...

I think your after more then your typical coverage that a good HO-3 policy would pick up on. This assuming the HO-3 GL is $1,000,000 with no exclusions. So Travelers has a great program and inexpensive without a direct appointment. Or you could the appointment with 300,000 premium comment.
