Business Description

Revenues are broken down as 2011 $39k Commissions and $17k Broker Fees. Sellers are 2 partners who work the business together. This book could easily be absorbed and maintained by a single (hard-working) senior level experienced person or spread amongst a few account managers who had extra bandwidth and both commercial and personal lines expertise. Non-portable, the Sellers have indicated they periodically visit clients (read: valuable commercial ones) on-site, so to maximize ROI, a local company who can maintain the high-touch nature of the current operation is highly recommended. All-cash purchasers from outside the area - at least you were advised of the situation. Top carriers by gross premium: Safeco, Liberty Surplus, State Fund, Progressive, United Specialty, FIC, Progressive, Infinity, Century Surety, Hartford. Utilizes a cluster group, so if you write these markets direct your ROI will be higher b/c you won't be paying the extra juice. Those accounts that are written through the clusters or MGA's are the property of the agency owners selling the book, not the 3rd party providing access to the appointments. Quoted Net profit would be for existing operation that rolled up this book into their existing enterprise, so if you are taking over their (or a different) lease, FSC, E&O expenses, etc...the net will be revised downward. NDA is required to get 2011 #'s and to potentially schedule a conference call or meeting with the Sellers.
