GoalClose coverage gaps
Protection Plan
Protection should connect to your real estate and money decisions.
Your insurance should not sit in a separate box. Buyers need coverage before closing, homeowners need liability and life protection, investors need landlord coverage, and business owners need policies that match how they actually operate.
Estimate the need
Use calculators for life coverage, home replacement planning, deductible choices, umbrella limits, and bundle review.
Choose the route
Use Ethos for life insurance, MIM for property and casualty, or request a full coverage review through The Credle Group.
Coverage Gap Audit
Find what is missing before a claim does.
Answer the quick audit. The score is a planning guide, not an insurance quote. Use it to decide whether to review life, home, auto, umbrella, landlord, or business coverage next.

Quick text script
Use this to introduce a client to the protection conversation.
Quick question — when was the last time you reviewed your home, auto, life, or landlord insurance? A lot of people are underinsured or overpaying and do not realize it until there is a claim. I can help you run a quick coverage check.
Homebuyer protection script
Use this with buyers before or after contract.
Before closing, we should make sure your homeowners insurance is not just cheap, but structured correctly — replacement cost, deductible, liability, water backup, and bundling options all matter.
Insurance FAQ
Questions people should ask before they buy.
Insurance is not just about finding the cheapest number. The goal is to avoid hidden gaps.
Do I need life insurance if I already have work coverage?
›Often, work coverage is not portable and may not be enough. A personal policy can protect your family even if your job changes.
Should I pick the cheapest homeowners policy?
›Not automatically. The cheapest option may have weak replacement-cost coverage, higher exclusions, low liability, or missing endorsements like water backup.
Do investors need different insurance?
›Yes. A rental, short-term rental, vacant rehab, or landlord property may need a different policy than a primary residence.
What is umbrella insurance?
›Umbrella insurance adds extra liability protection above underlying home and auto limits. It can matter if you own assets, rentals, vehicles, or have higher exposure.
Can I bundle home and auto?
›Sometimes bundling can lower costs, but the real goal is the best mix of price, coverage, carrier strength, and claims handling.
Is this page an insurance quote?
›No. This page is for education and planning. Actual quotes, coverage terms, and eligibility are determined by licensed insurance partners and carrier underwriting.
The Next Step
Do not wait for a claim to expose the gap.
Run the audit, estimate the need, then choose the right route: Ethos for life, MIM for property and casualty, or a full coverage review through The Credle Group.
