Frequently asked questions

How does an independent insurance agency work?

An independent agency is not employed by a single carrier. You explain your situation once; the agency shops appointed markets and explains options, trade-offs, and next steps.

Is a Skvela consultation free?

Yes. The introductory consultation is free and without obligation. Binding coverage still depends on underwriting and carrier acceptance.

What should I bring to the first call?

Declarations page, renewal or non-renewal notice if you have one, property address, and any notes on roof age or wildfire mitigation.
