RPT Insurance
Insurance is one of those decisions that no one enjoys. The truth is that most of us buy insurance because it is mandatory. Here is the truth behind insurance agencies... They lie... They lie by telling you the truth in a sophisticated way so that you don’t know that they are lying.
They spend billions on television commercials and personalities, to convince you that they are the "best insurance company" or "good people insurance company" or the "cheapest insurance company". The truth is that they make money by taking in more than they pay out, and only paying out when it is absolutely necessary for them to. They dedicate entire divisions to "cost containment", fancy words for "ways not to pay".
The insurance companies hire teams of lawyers to figure out ways not to have to pay legally, so that the insurance company is able to walk away legally and leave you with the bill.
Of course, the insurance companies will pay if it is in the course of doing business. In other words, sometimes it will cost more to fight a claim than to pay it. This is why insurance agents show up at disaster areas and start writing checks. Once they write the check the claim is settled and these are usually high profile cases so they want them settled. The insurance companies are smart!!!
So the question is how do you obtain insurance, and not be taken advantage of?
The answer is simple. Buy from us. Wink, Wink. Ok so that was a bit overt. There are insurance companies and insurance agencies, both entirely different animals. The trick is to align with an Insurance Agency that can shop the insurance companies, like we can. We are not "captive" as we refer to it in the industry. Therefore we can shop your insurance with all the major insurance companies and provide you with the lowest quote. When the company raises your rate, our agency can switch your insurance to a cheaper one (and we will).
The easy way to know the difference is that the insurance agencies work for the insurance companies. Some contracts are exclusive and captive. For example, Allstate Insurance, Farmers Insurance, State Farm Insurance are Insurance companies that only allow us to sell their Insurance exclusively and it does not matter if they are the cheapest rate or not. Some contracts with Insurance agents are "non-captive" this means that the Insurance agent can shop the companies for the best price or deal for our customer.
RPTeam Insurance agency is a non-captive agency, and we will shop your price whenever you want. Here is the one thing to remember, insurance is a highly regulated industry and in order to stay in business Insurance companies need to make a profit. They don’t need to make a killing on YOUR back, more than anything insurance companies fear litigation. In short, real lawsuits scare them. Don’t confuse this with the upset guy yelling on the phone that he will sue, this happens all the time and doesn’t even register in the minds of the insurance company. However… the person collecting evidence taking pictures, videotaping, this is the person that the insurance company fears and many times just to put the situation to bed they will negotiate their way out of a problem with a confidential settlement… happens all the time.
