Business owners: how much has your business changed since you last looked at your insurance policy? πŸ‚

New equipment, a second location, seasonal help for the holidays, a bigger delivery radius. All of it is normal growth, and all of it can quietly leave gaps in your coverage.

Labor Day is a good marker. The next four months are usually the busiest of the year, so this is the week to check the policy while you still have a minute.

We are an independent agency right here in Rockville, so we shop multiple carriers and bring you real options for your business, not one number to take or leave.

A quiet hurricane season still only takes one storm.

NOAA is forecasting a below-normal Atlantic season, but Isabel was a single storm, and on September 19, 2003 it pushed an 8.34-foot storm tide into Baltimore and 7.47 feet into Annapolis. Surge came in 1 to 3 feet higher than forecast in the northern Bay. Fells Point and the Inner Harbor went under.

Three things Maryland homeowners should check before peak season:

Flood isn't in your homeowners policy. It never has been. Flood needs its own policy, and NFIP coverage takes 30 days to kick in. Once a storm is named, it's too late to buy.

Your hurricane deductible may be a percentage, not a flat amount. In Maryland it can trigger any time a hurricane warning is issued for your county - even if the storm never reaches hurricane strength here. At 2% on a $500,000 dwelling limit, that's $10,000 out of pocket.
Your rebuild cost has moved. Construction costs have climbed since you last looked. A dwelling limit set five years ago may not rebuild the same house today.

We're independent, so we can compare what you have against what other carriers offer - and tell you straight up if you're already in good shape.

Quick question: do you know how much life insurance you actually have through work? πŸ€”

For most people the honest answer is "one or two times my salary, I think." That is a real gap, and it usually does not follow you if you change jobs.

Open enrollment is coming up, so this is the right moment to look at it. As an independent agency in Rockville, we are not tied to one company. We compare life insurance options from multiple carriers and help Montgomery County families figure out what actually fits, whether you need to supplement what you have or start from scratch. πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§

No cost, no pressure, just a straight answer.

New driver in the house this school year? πŸš—πŸŽ’

Between the new license, the earlier commute, and the school zones filling back up, late August is the moment to check your auto policy instead of assuming it still fits.

Quick gut check: Is every driver listed? Are your liability limits still right for what you have to protect today? Are you actually getting the good student, low mileage, and bundling discounts you qualify for?

We are an independent agency in Rockville, so we shop multiple carriers and bring you real auto insurance quotes across Montgomery County. No cost, no pressure, just options. πŸ‘

Who else is already counting down to the Montgomery County Agricultural Fair? 🎑

Fair season means summer is winding down, and that makes it a good moment for a quick homeowners check: would your policy actually rebuild your house at today's prices? Finished a basement or added a deck this year? Your coverage may not know about it yet. 🏑

We are an independent agency right here in Rockville, so we shop multiple carriers for you instead of pushing one company's rate. It takes about ten minutes and there is no pressure either way.

If a storm closed your business for two weeks, would your insurance cover the income you lost? 🌧️

That question catches a lot of Montgomery County owners off guard. Commercial property covers the building and the stuff inside it. Business interruption is what keeps the lights on while you are closed for repairs, and plenty of local policies do not include it.

August and September are our wettest, stormiest stretch of the year, so this is the week to check. Flood damage is usually excluded too, which surprises almost everyone.

We are an independent agency in Rockville, so we shop multiple carriers for you and explain the differences in plain English. 🐒

Backpacks, school supplies, new sneakers... what's on your back-to-school checklist this year? πŸŽ’

Here's one item that's easy to forget: your life insurance coverage. If it's been a while since you've looked at your policy (or you don't have one yet), late summer is a great time for a quick check-in before the school year gets busy.

We're an independent agency right here in Rockville, and we shop multiple carriers to find real life insurance coverage that fits Maryland families, not a one-size-fits-all policy. Whether you're in Bethesda, Silver Spring, or anywhere else in Montgomery County, we've got you covered.

Did your car insurance go up this year, even though nothing about your driving changed? πŸš—

You are definitely not the only one in Montgomery County.

Here is the thing: your current insurance company only shows you one price. They are not out there comparing. We are. Terrapin is an independent agency, so when you call us for an auto insurance quote, we shop multiple carriers and tell you honestly whether it is worth switching or whether you are already in good shape.

No pressure, no call center, no runaround. Just a real conversation with a local agent who lives and works right here.

Rockville, Bethesda, Gaithersburg, Silver Spring, we have got you. πŸ‘‹
