Things got a little spicy at TDA last week! 🌶️🏆

Our annual Carrier Chili Cook-Off brought our carrier partners together for some friendly competition, with our staff voting for the best pot of chili.

But this year, a surprise competitor joined the mix—our very own Stacie! She quietly entered the competition and ended up taking home FIRST PLACE! 👏

🥇 Bragging rights are officially staying in-house this year!

A big thank-you to our carrier partners for bringing the chili, spending time with our staff, and being such an important part of the TDA family. We appreciate your partnership and loved the chance to catch up over some great food!

Big week for the TDA team!

Last week gave us plenty to celebrate, both in the office and throughout the communities we’re proud to be part of.

We celebrated Nick VanDike’s first TDA birthday, joined the annual Michigan Orthopedic Rehabilitation Specialists Golf Outing supporting two incredible organizations, Community Living Centers, Inc. and CARES in Farmington Hills, attended Catholic Central High School's Donor Appreciation Night at the football game Friday, and had the chance to support one of our clients at the soft opening of their new Novi restaurant, North Eight Kitchen and Cocktails.

From celebrating our team to supporting great causes, community partners, and our clients, it was a busy week and a great reminder of how fortunate we are to be connected to so many great people and organizations.

We’re grateful for another week of celebrating our people, supporting our community, and showing up for the clients and organizations that mean so much to us.

Proud to have TDA support the 14th Annual David Widzinski Community Golf Classic this past weekend! ⛳️

This special outing brings people together to remember and celebrate David’s life, faith, and spirit while supporting a number of meaningful charitable causes in our community.

We’re grateful to be part of an event that represents so much of what we value at TDA: family, community, relationships, and making a positive impact on the people around us.

Thank you to everyone who puts their time and heart into making this outing such a special tradition year after year. We were proud to be a sponsor and even happier to enjoy a beautiful day on the course! ☀️🏌️‍♂️

David Lives On!

Cheers to 30 years! 🥂

Today, TDA Insurance & Mark Diederich celebrates 30 years in business.

What started as a leap of faith and a commitment to building something meaningful has grown into an agency we are incredibly proud of today. Over the past three decades, TDA has had the privilege of serving thousands of local families and businesses, building lasting relationships, and becoming part of a community that has supported us every step of the way.

No milestone like this happens because of one person.

We are incredibly grateful to every past and current TDA team member who has helped shape this agency over the years. Thank you to our clients who have trusted us to help protect their families, businesses, and assets. Thank you to our carrier partners, referral partners, and community partners who have worked alongside us and helped us continue to grow and serve at a high level.

And a very special thank you to Sherry Jacobsen Diederich, who has played such an important role in TDA’s story from the beginning and, as always, put together an awesome celebration for everyone this morning!

At TDA, we have always believed this business is about much more than insurance. It is about relationships, trust, education, service, and being there for people when they need us most. We are proud of the family-oriented culture that has been built here and grateful for the opportunity to continue carrying it forward.

To everyone who has been part of these first 30 years, thank you. We truly would not be here without you.

Here’s to the memories, the relationships, the growth, and everything still ahead.

Cheers to 30 years, and we look forward to our next 30! 🥂🎉

🦆 Another great Duck Race in the books!

We were proud to support the 2026 Great Duck Race benefiting CARES in Farmington Hills, an organization doing incredible work through its food pantry and Campus of Hope to serve families in our community.

A huge thank you to Olivia from our TDA team for putting her creativity to work and making our TDA duck look awesome this year, and for coming out to represent us at the event!

And, as always, there was a little friendly competition involved… Congratulations to Gary Bulson and Men On The Move Inc. for taking home the bragging rights and beating the TDA duck in our annual showdown. We’ll be back for you next year! 😄

We’re grateful to be part of events like this that bring local businesses, families, and community organizations together for a great cause. Thank you to CARES and everyone who helped make this year’s Duck Race such a success.

Community. Relationships. A little competition. That’s a pretty good day.

If you've ever looked at your auto insurance bill and wondered, "Am I paying for the right coverage?" you're not alone.

Michigan has one of the most unique auto insurance systems in the country, with no fault insurance and changes around Personal Injury Protection (PIP) that provided choices after Michigan Auto Insurance Reform in 2020. It isn't always easy to know what you actually need.

That's why we created a simple guide to help Michigan drivers better understand their coverage and make more confident insurance decisions.

Inside you'll learn about:
• Michigan's unique auto insurance system
• Coverage options that matter
• Ways to compare policies beyond just price
• Common mistakes to avoid when choosing coverage

If it's been a while since you've reviewed your auto insurance, this is a great place to start.

At TDA and Kennedy Nemier Insurance Services, we believe an informed client is a better-protected client.

Understand Michigan car insurance requirements, PIP choices, liability limits, no-fault coverage and practical ways to manage premium without creating dangerous gaps.

One of the most common questions we hear is, "Why is one homeowners insurance quote so much more expensive than another?"

The answer is usually found in the coverage, not just the premium.

Have you ever wondered why one homeowners insurance quote is hundreds of dollars more than another for what appears to be the same coverage?

The truth is, the biggest differences are often hidden in the policy details, not just the premium.

Over the years, we've helped many homeowners who believed they had the right coverage, only to discover after a claim that their policy didn't protect them the way they expected. Those conversations inspired us to create this guide for Michigan homeowners.

In our latest article, we explain:
• Why homeowners insurance prices vary
• HO-3 vs. HO-5 policies
• Replacement Cost vs. Actual Cash Value
• Roof coverage and wind/hail deductibles
• Optional coverages that can make a big difference when you need them most

At TDA and Kennedy Nemier Insurance Services, we believe an informed client is a better-protected client. We hope this guide helps homeowners across Michigan better understand their coverage and make more confident insurance decisions.

If this helps you better understand your homeowners insurance, please consider sharing it with a friend or family member. You never know who might benefit from knowing the difference before they have to file a claim.
