 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Auto Owners representatives of Underwood Insurance provided me excellent service.  I called them the day I arrived from Georgia and requested coverage on a home that I was closing on in just a few hours.  John, the agent, was thorough and quite diligent in reviewing the property and assessing precisely what I would need to begin coverage.  I have always had excellent service from Auto Owners and found their agents knowledgeable and proficient.  I would highly recommend the company and this particular agent and agency.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very helpful from the start.  Was looking for a local agency and quotes with multiple companies. I had been with State Farm for years and wanted to see more than one option.  Was presented with options, quotes using different deductibles, and cost saving measures. At no point in time did I feel like the agency rep was getting impatient, or like I was being an inconvenience.  Found a quote with an A rated company for almost $100 less than I was paying with State Farm a month.  Positive experience overall and would recommend this agency to others.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I lower my premium?

Consider carrying a higher deductible to lower your monthly premium and potentially get more coverage for less money. This option may be suitable if you believe the chances of making a claim are unlikely enough to justify taking on more financial risk.

Why should I buy my homeowner’s insurance?

Homeowner’s insurance protects your significant investment of money, time, and energy in your home. It insures the structure(s) and personal possessions, providing liability protection for residents. With homeowner’s insurance, you safeguard yourself and your family from substantial loss in the event of damage or destruction. If you have a mortgage, it’s likely a requirement to carry homeowner’s insurance.

How can I protect expensive possessions like jewelry and camera equipment that exceed policy limits?

Extend the limits of coverage for specific items by purchasing additional coverage either through an endorsement to your existing policy or with a separate policy.

What damage to my house would not be covered by my homeowner’s policy?

The coverage exclusions may vary depending on your policy, but generally, losses due to floods, earthquakes, nuclear accidents, wars, intentional damage, and normal wear and tear are not covered unless you purchase additional coverage. Other exclusions may also apply.

What should I do if another driver hits my car?

If the accident was not your fault, file a third-party claim with the at-fault driver’s insurance company. As the claimant, the insurance company will generally issue the check directly to you. It is your responsibility to pay the repair shop and, if applicable, your car loan. If the other driver is uninsured, your coverage for uninsured motorists will come into effect.

What happens if my car is stolen?

Be prepared for a waiting period, as most insurance companies require time to see if the police recover your car. If it remains missing after the waiting period (usually 21 days), you should receive a settlement soon after. However, if your car is found during the waiting period, the insurance company will typically request a repair estimate before determining the next steps.
