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.

My first experience working with Brian was pretty good. Once I had my policies in place and I…read moreneeded to make changes/corrections or had questions it was a lot harder to get support from Brian or his office. Recently, my insurer drastically increased my rates without informing me why and the only way to address this was to work with Brian. I got in touch with the office and expressed my interest in getting this corrected or having other options before my policy renewed and managed to get Brian on the phone to discuss. He promised I would receive options or a solution by the next business day. I never heard back. I ended up switching to a different insurer (not through avail) and it took multiple attempts to get Avail to cancel my old policy. I think of the whole point of working with an agent is to get better service than dealing directly with an insurer -- with Avail that was certainly not the case.

He reported that we had a 3 car garage when we only had 1 car. Also, he stated that we didn't have a basement. If we were ever to file a claim, we would not be paid for the basement. Also, he kept scaring us to pay more (like higher deductible) which lead to higher premiums. I found out all this after we switched to another agent, Virginia Tam, who helped us lower our Farmer's premium and straighten our policy so the policy reflects our current house so we get paid out if there is any damage. she was recommended by my cousin. I am kicking myself for overpaying for our home ins for over 7 years. Mike is a great salesmen and he sold us a policy and kept us through his scare tactics. He's a talker, therefore you don't get the correct info. I would highly discourage anyone from using Mike. I reported him to his district manager and I got no response.
