I was non-renewed by my previous insurer (Homesite) due to fire risk in California. I reached out…read moreto a few brokers and Joe was honestly the only one who responded, and he did so quickly. Within a couple days he was able to find me a new insurer and set up a FAIR plan. The premium was lower in total (FAIR + new insurer) than the total premium of my old plan and has much higher coverages. He was extremely responsive. When I reached out to him he'd almost always respond within the hour. Very happy with what he put together. Thanks, Joe!

I tried researching online on my own, but every company's site required me to answer *many* questions before it would give a quote, and I didn't know if I was checking with *all* available insurance providers. (Turns out I wasn't.) As it happened, I came across an article about finding insurance, and it recommended contacting an *independent* insurance broker, and that led me to finding Avail Insurance Solutions. Avail wound up finding a renter's insurance provider and one for earthquake coverage; the combined premiums totaled about the same as what my new, higher rate would have been for renters coverage only. So, I'm very happy with Avail's service.

I desperately needed a new auto insurance carrier and Shirley came as a recommendation. I'm SO glad…read moreI reached out! I had a fantastic experience working with Shirley and Andrea! They truly made the process of getting the auto insurance I needed easy and stress-free. Shirley took the time to explain all of my options, answer all of my questions, and helped me choose the best policy for my needs and to fit my budget. Most insurance agents make you feel rushed and pressure you to purchase unnecessary add-ons but she never rushed me, which I appreciate! Overall, my experience was great. I highly recommend!

Two words: run away!…read more Summary of my experience: I was with this agency for about three years and had nothing but negative experiences, including: - home and auto insurance rates were ~1.5-2x more expensive compared to other major insurance companies such as State Farm AND provides significantly less coverage (I left McDermottCosta and saved almost 50% annually while getting better coverage) - staff were rude, unhelpful, unresponsive, unknowledgeable, and inaccurate - doesn't watch out for the customer's best interest (e.g., seem to sell you on a particular insurance company and refurses or responds very slowly when you ask for other options, which I'm assuming because McDermottCosta gets a higher profit margin?) - application renewals were filled with mistakes (e.g., home purchase year off by 5 years, birthday was completely wrong and off by about 15 years) I'm all for supporting local businesses, but it also has to be earned. McDermottCosta never earned my business despite actually having it for a few years (I blame myself for not leaving more quickly).
