🎃 Happy Halloween from all of us at Dostal & Kirk! 👻
Ghosts, goblins, and… unexpected insurance surprises? 👻
The scariest things aren’t always hiding in the shadows — sometimes they’re the things we don’t think to review.

🕷️ A new home
🕷️ A new vehicle
🕷️ A growing family
🕷️ Changes to your business

Life changes, and your insurance coverage may need to change with it. Taking time to review your policies can help you better understand your coverage and options.

But today, we’re here for the fun kind of scares! 🎃
We hope your Halloween is filled with creative costumes, sweet treats, and plenty of memories with family and friends. 🍬
Have a safe and happy Halloween from our team to you! 🧡

Last week, members of our Dostal & Kirk team had the opportunity to visit NASDAQ’s headquarters in New York City!
Steve and Jeff connected with NASDAQ leadership and leading money managers in the global financial markets, gaining valuable insights and perspectives on the financial landscape.

Alongside fellow Principal Financial Advisors from Columbus, Chicago, and Des Moines, it was a great opportunity to learn, exchange ideas, and bring back knowledge that will help us continue serving our clients with confidence and proficiency.

We're grateful for opportunities like these that allow our team to keep learning and growing for the benefit of those we serve!

We couldn't be more excited to cheer on our very own Evan Geyer as he takes the dance floor at the 8th Annual Celebrity Gala! 🌟💃

Evan's dedication to our clients and the Marion community is something we're incredibly proud of, and we love seeing him give back in such a fun and meaningful way!

Join us in wishing Evan the best of luck as he puts on his dancing shoes! We're all cheering you on, Evan! 👏

Meet Dancer #7 - Welcome to Evan Geyer for our 8th Annual Celebrity Gala - Starry, Starry Night! 🤩

Evan joined Dostal & Kirk in 2020 and has become an integral part of the agency’s Marion office, helping businesses and families navigate their insurance and financial needs while driving new business across personal, commercial, farm insurance, and financial services.

A lifelong resident of Marion, Evan has deep roots in the community he is proud to call home. He attended The Ohio State University, where he studied English education. His professional journey has taken him through the restaurant industry, public education, sales, management, and business operations, giving him a broad range of experiences and, most importantly, an appreciation for building meaningful relationships with people from all walks of life.

As Office Manager at Dostal & Kirk Marion, Evan brings together his professional experience and genuine passion for his hometown. For him, serving clients goes beyond writing insurance policies. It is about getting to know people, understanding what matters most to them, and helping protect the families, businesses, farms, and organizations that make the Marion community special.

That same commitment to service extends well beyond the office. Evan serves on the Board of Education for Marion City Schools, where his role is especially meaningful as both a lifelong community member and parent. He also serves on the Board of Directors for the Marion Area Chamber of Commerce and the Marion Rotary Board, as well as the Advisory Board Chair for the Boys & Girls Club of Marion County.

At the heart of everything Evan does is family and community. He and his wife, Keri, are raising their three children in Marion, the same community that helped shape them. Whether working with a client, supporting local schools, serving a community organization, or spending time with his family, Evan is proud to invest his time and energy in making Marion a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

Evan will be dancing a musical theatre number with new instructor, Kim Bradshaw. 💃🕺

Thank you, Evan, for saying “YES” to the dance!

Thinking about turning your home into a short-term rental? 🏡
Before welcoming guests, it’s important to understand how your insurance coverage may apply.

Many homeowners policies are designed for personal residences and may not automatically cover situations involving paying guests. Coverage provided through home-sharing platforms may offer some benefits, but it is typically intended to supplement — not replace — your existing homeowners policy.

Some areas worth reviewing include:
🔑 Property damage
👥 Guest liability concerns
💰 Lost rental income situations
💎 Personal belongings and valuables

📞 Planning to rent your home short-term? Our team can help review your current coverage and answer questions specific to your property.
