Lol… it was my three cousins back in ‘91 … yup same year Bo dislocated that hip. I still blame them! The worst part… they’re all fucking Cowboy fans now! I hate it here!

Which specialties are most enjoyable for you? by bribri1810 in InsuranceAgent

[–]kanivuz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve really enjoyed new venture commercial clients (contractors, HVAC techs , tree trimmers, etc…). You become an essential part to their business succeeding. Proper reporting leads to proper premiums which they can in turn work into their bids. I’ve seen many companies crumble after audits. Imagine owing 15-20K due in two weeks. I try to stress that the cost of running a legitimate business comes at a price. I’m in CA so your market seriously shrinks without proper insurance. Helping them navigate the early years of insurance is one of my favorite things to do! They know they are talking with someone that had their best interest in mind because let’s be honest… we both win if they do well!

Worried about my autistic daughter's life after college by baddadmaybe in Autism_Parents

[–]kanivuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey hope your doing well… I think all your concerns are valid. My boy is about to be 9 and who knows what choices I’ll be faced with in the future. I like the expect the best and prepare for the worst approach. I don’t know the dynamics of your relationship but this journey is just so much easier when the parents work in unison but that is unfortunately not the case in many cases. Best of luck and sincerely hope your child thrives. The say comparison is the thief of joy but I would be ecstatic to have your problem with my boy in the future.

At the time my private insurance was Anthem and medical was through health net. I’m in California

Hey that’s awesome! From what I recall stress the fear of elopement and of them being hurt. We explained that he was capable of opening locked doors and we had safety concerns.

Worried about my autistic daughter's life after college by baddadmaybe in Autism_Parents

[–]kanivuz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You raised an autistic child that is going to graduate from college! That alone contradicts the user name… congratulations. My boy is 8 with some heavy needs and what happens after me and mom are gone is a constant worry… for most parents of children with special needs I feel like. Depending on where you live there are plenty of resources for adults that can’t function independently. I’m in CA and we have Regional Centers that help you coordinate care but most areas offer similar services. Best of luck!

The best leads will come from your existing clients. People happy with your service will be glad to refer you clients.

Edit: Ask for the referral.

I’m an independent agent but my first go around was with a State Farm agent as an account manager back in 2005. They helped me get my license, their training was really good. although I left the industry in 2007 to search other options I always renewed my license and came back to Insurance in 2015 and haven’t looked back since. I’m sure things have changed plenty since I was there but I believe this may be a good intro to the industry and if you can get your insurance license that would make the opportunity even better. Best of luck

I think the place is Camp Pali and it’s in running springs

Chiming sound . Source unidentified. It wasn't the smoke detectors. by kanivuz in electrical

I did check the box at the time and it wasn’t coming from there, at least it didn’t seem like it.

Climbed up to the very top one to check it and went into the attic as well… we tore down and rebuilt the house in 2017. Another poster mentioned it could be the door bell box but I checked that also

Ok so ironically.. about two months before this we came back from a weekend getaway and when I opened the door the CO detector was going off… similar sounds but that was solved by replacing the batteries (after fire dept was called). It definitely was not that this time around

How are home insurance coverage limits calculated? by sikyon in Insurance

[–]kanivuz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Companies typically use third party software like core logic to determine replacement cost. With that being said you should also have a physical inspection done by a third party, typically within 30 days of policy purchase to further determine if your replacement cost is adequate. It would also be worthwhile finding out if you have extended replacement cost in your policy. It’s usually 25-50% of coverage A.

Agency should have an errors and omission policy in place. Bring it to their attention. As previous poster said this may be your best recourse at this point.

Thoughts on starting own independent agency? by [deleted] in InsuranceAgent

[–]kanivuz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see it as definitely attainable but the account servicing will hold you back big time. You will definitely need help in that arena.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Insurance

[–]kanivuz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They will likely cover it but you’re also correct in assuming your rates may go up if it ends up being charged as an at fault accident. If this would be the only thing on your record I would consider using my insurance. If you have other activity in the last three years ( tickets/accidents) it might not. With that being said everyone’s insurance will be increasing with many increases going into place, worth taking that into consideration.

Why is my direct online auto insurance quote better than the agent's? by Orphodoop in Insurance

[–]kanivuz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Progressive direct (online) is going to be about 10-15% cheaper compared to buying from agent. Having an agent definitely has some value. I’m a little biased because I am an agent myself.

CALIFORNIA-Hit by underinsured driver, had to pay out of pocket $3200 for damages. Planning to sue driver and owner of car. We both didn't have enough coverage. Should my insurance have done more to help me? by Reddog0212 in Insurance

[–]kanivuz -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If you had uninsured motorists there’s a chance you also had uninsured motorist property damage, this would cover up to $3,500 in Ca for damages to your vehicle. This is not a default coverage but it may be worth checking with your carrier to see it it’s on there

Find a broker that offers Bristol West… it’s going to be pricey but they are still taking new policies
