A covered business loss can bring a lot of questions—especially about how your policy will pay.

Two common valuation methods are actual cash value (ACV) and replacement cost value (RCV). ACV generally factors in depreciation, while RCV is designed to help cover the cost to replace covered property, subject to your policy’s terms, limits, and deductibles.

That difference can have a meaningful impact on your business after a loss.

At Wohltman Aherin Insurance, we help Illinois business owners understand the coverage they have and the options available to them. If you are unsure how your commercial property coverage is valued, our team is here to talk it through.

What questions do you have about ACV or RCV coverage? Call us at (217) 925-5165.

Fire prevention starts with the everyday habits that help protect the people, homes, farms, and businesses we care about.

During Fire Prevention Month, take a few minutes to review these essentials:

• Test smoke alarms monthly and replace alarms that are 10 years old or older.
• Keep an eye on cooking and keep flammable items at least three feet away from heat sources.
• Create and practice a home escape plan with two ways out of every room.
• Keep portable heaters, fireplaces, and electrical cords in safe working condition.
• Make sure everyone in your household knows when to leave immediately and call 911.

For farm owners and business owners, fire safety also means regularly reviewing buildings, equipment, electrical systems, and emergency plans.

At Wohltman Aherin Insurance, we are proud to help families, farms, and businesses across Effingham, Jasper, and Shelby counties understand their insurance options. If you would like to review your home, farm, or business insurance coverage, our team is here to help.

Deer activity increases in the fall, particularly around dawn and dusk. For Illinois businesses with employees who drive for work, a collision can affect more than a vehicle—it can disrupt schedules, create downtime, and put people at risk.

A few reminders for drivers:
• Slow down and stay alert in areas with deer-crossing signs
• Scan both sides of the road, especially near fields and wooded areas
• If a deer enters the roadway, brake firmly when it is safe to do so—swerving can create an even greater risk
• Remember that deer often travel in groups

At Wohltman Aherin Insurance, we help businesses across Effingham, Jasper, and Shelby counties review commercial auto coverage and understand their options. If your business vehicles have not been reviewed recently, we are here to help.

A few practical habits can help make your home a less appealing target for theft:

• Lock doors, windows, garages, and outbuildings—even when you are only away briefly.
• Keep exterior entryways well lit.
• Avoid leaving spare keys in obvious places.
• Ask a trusted neighbor to collect mail or packages when you are away.
• Keep valuables out of sight from windows and vehicles.

These steps can help deter theft, but they cannot eliminate every risk. Reviewing your homeowners insurance is an important part of protecting the home and belongings you have worked hard for.

Our team at Wohltman Aherin Insurance can help Illinois homeowners understand their theft coverage and explore options that fit their needs. Reach out to us with questions about your home insurance coverage.

Life changes quickly—and your insurance coverage should keep up.

A new home, vehicle, renovation, marriage, teen driver, family heirloom, side business, or change in income can all affect the protection you need. Reviewing your policies after a major milestone can help identify coverage gaps before they become a problem.

At Wohltman Aherin Insurance, we help families, farm owners, and businesses throughout Effingham, Jasper, and Shelby counties review their home, auto, farm, life, and business insurance as their needs evolve.

If life looks different than it did when you last reviewed your policies, let’s talk. Our team is here to help you find coverage that fits where you are now.

Crop insurance plays a big role in helping Illinois farmers protect their operations from weather, pests, disease, and market swings. Through the USDA's public‑private partnership, premium subsidies can cover a significant portion of the total cost—sometimes up to 80%—making coverage more affordable for eligible growers.

At Wohltman Aherin Insurance, our team helps local farmers choose the right crop insurance policy for their operation. Factors like coverage level, crop type, and location all impact premium and subsidy amounts, and we’re here to make those decisions easier.

If you have questions about premium subsidies or want to review your crop insurance options, reach out anytime. We're proud to support growers across Effingham, Jasper, and Shelby counties.
