Are you an independent insurance agency?
Yes, we are an independent agency. That means we work with multiple insurance carriers to find you the best coverage at competitive rates. Why that matters: You’re not limited to one option—we shop for you.

Why should I work with an independent agent instead of going direct?
We do the shopping for you. Instead of getting quotes from one company, we compare multiple options to ensure you get the best value and coverage.

Working with a local agency like Powell Insurance means:

• Personalized, one-on-one service
• Faster support when you need it
• Someone who understands your community

How much insurance coverage do I need?
Coverage needs vary based on your situation. We’ll take the time to understand your assets, risks, and goals to recommend the right level of protection. Let’s review your coverage → Schedule a Policy Review

What does homeowners insurance typically cover?
Homeowners insurance generally covers your home, personal belongings, liability, and additional living expenses if your home becomes uninhabitable due to a covered loss. We’ll walk you through exactly what your policy includes—no surprises.

Do I need renters insurance?
Yes. Your landlord’s insurance does not cover your personal belongings. Renters insurance protects your property and provides liability coverage at a low cost. It’s more affordable than you think → Get a Quote

Rates are based on several factors including location, coverage limits, claims history, and personal risk factors. We help you understand what affects your premium.
