Why Choose an Independent Insurance Broker?
We are an Independent Insurance Broker, which means we act as professional insurance advisors operating an independent business to serve all your insurance needs. Our dedicated employees are continually trained through RIBO (Registered Insurance Brokers of Ontario) approved programs. We are experts at simplifying the intricacies of insurance policies, sharing our knowledge and presenting our best recommendations to you, the customer. Our office represents several different insurance companies and we are, therefore, able to shop around and negotiate the best premiums matched to the best coverage for your protection. Simply put we work with you to help make a more informed decision.
The success of our independent brokerage relies solely upon satisfying your insurance needs. Therefore, it is always in our best interest to continually provide you with prompt and personal service whenever you are purchasing or updating your insurance. If you are ever caught in the unfortunate circumstance of having to make a claim, we will always be by your side. We will do our best to assist you quickly and to make sure that you are treated fairly by the insurance company.
What is the difference between a Broker and an Agent?
The difference is simple. As your Independent Insurance Broker we represent several reputable insurance companies and negotiate the best possible coverage and price, on your behalf. An Insurance Agent, on the other hand, works directly for one specific company and can only sell one company’s policies at a fixed rate. Pricing is non-negotiable. They do not have the luxury of choice that you share with us, your Independent Insurance Broker.
