🍂 Fall is beautiful… until someone takes an unexpected trip! 🍁😅

Falling leaves, cooler temperatures, and pumpkin spice everything are some of the best parts of autumn. But those pretty leaves can turn into slippery sidewalks, and shorter days can bring some unexpected hazards! 🍃⚠️

Whether you're a homeowner or business owner, a little fall maintenance now can help prevent a big headache (or insurance claim!) later.

🏡 Our newest blog covers common fall hazards, simple safety tips, and ways to help protect your home, business, and everyone who visits.

Because the only thing we want falling this season is the leaves! 🍂😉

👇 Read our latest blog and stay one step ahead of fall hazards!

Yesterday, our Commercial Lines team attended the 2026 Liberty Mutual Roadshow, where a bird and a guy in khakis delivered some exciting news about lower rates for home, auto, and small business insurance.

Brent even got to rub elbows with some famous faces, LiMu Emu & Doug! After over 150 years in the insurance industry, Wilson Oliver knows the importance of making good connections… even the ones with feathers.

We're not sure if they talked insurance, exchanged business cards, or if LiMu Emu was just there to supervise Doug… but we're calling it a successful networking event and a fun opportunity to connect with our friends at Liberty Mutual Insurance! 🤝

🏡🔨 Adding a Garage, Shed, or Workshop? Don’t Forget About Your Insurance!

That new detached garage, backyard shed, or dream workshop can be a great addition to your property but it may also change your insurance needs.

Before you start building, there are a few things worth discussing with your insurance agent:

🔹 Is the structure adequately covered?
🔹 Will the cost to rebuild exceed your current limits?
🔹 What are you storing inside?
🔹 Will you be using the space for a business?
🔹 Could the new structure create additional liability or fire risks?

Your new building is an investment, so make sure your insurance keeps up with it!

📖 Check out our newest blog: Insurance Considerations When Adding a Detached Garage, Shed, or Workshop

Did you know that September 14th marks the day Francis Scott Key wrote the poem that would become “The Star-Spangled Banner”

More than 200 years later, the Star-Spangled Banner remains a powerful symbol of freedom, resilience, and the enduring spirit of our nation. 🇺🇸

Today, we remember the history behind the song and the story that inspired it.
