Whether you just purchased your first car or house, or you've held multiple insurance policies for years, having an insurance agent can make finding coverage so much easier. Not all insurance agents have experience with different types of policies such as pet, wedding, RV, or motorcycle insurance. If your agent only provides the most common types, it might be time to shop for another agent.
Besides the right coverage, finding someone you can trust who is in good legal standing is essential. Search for licensed agencies at the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI), ask family and friends for recommendations, and look up reviews to see what others say. If you need help, our Texell Insurance agents can shop your policy and advise you on when to bundle for better rates.

Owning a home is part of the American dream but taking that next step into homeownership requires planning. Your personal goals, lifestyle, and financial situation all play a part in this big decision. Weigh the pros and cons of renting versus buying and make sure you’re ready before taking the leap.
Some of the biggest benefits of renting include having fixed expenses, flexibility to move, and extra amenities like a pool or fitness center. The greatest downside is that because you do not own your home, you don’t get to use it as an asset for building equity or other tax benefits. The main benefits of owning a home include stability and having control over your space to make renovations. The downsides include less flexibility to move and more expenses, especially up front with a down payment and closing costs.
When you’re ready to buy, our Texell Home Loan Heroes can help. They’ll walk you through the process and answer all your questions. Read more on our blog. Visit TexellHomeLoans.com or call 254.774.5104 to get started today.
