🍁 Your October Insurance Checklist: Is Your Coverage Ready for Fall?
October is a great time to prepare for the changing seasons. Before the holiday rush begins, take a few minutes to review your insurance needs.

Fall in Washington means shorter days, wet roads, foggy mornings, and changing driving conditions. Have you purchased a new vehicle, added a driver, or experienced changes in your daily commute? This is a great time to review your auto insurance coverage.
🏡 Homeowners Insurance – Is Your Home Ready for Pacific Northwest Weather?
October is a great reminder to clean gutters, inspect your roof, check drainage around your home, and prepare for heavy rain and windstorms. Have you made home improvements or additions since your last insurance review?
🔑 Renters Insurance – Protecting What Makes Your House a Home
Whether you're renting your first apartment, moving into a new home, or settling into a new place this fall, renters insurance can help protect your personal belongings from certain covered losses and provide personal liability coverage.

Whether you're heading to a local pumpkin patch, decorating your home, or welcoming trick-or-treaters, here are a few simple reminders:
🎃 Keep walkways and porches clear of decorations and tripping hazards.
🍬 Make sure outdoor lighting is working for trick-or-treaters.
🚗 Slow down and watch for pedestrians in neighborhoods.
🕯️ Consider battery-operated candles for jack-o'-lanterns.
🐾 Keep candy and potentially hazardous decorations away from pets.
🏡 Secure outdoor decorations before windy weather arrives.
We love seeing our Marysville community come together for seasonal celebrations. Wishing everyone a fun and safe Halloween!
🌧️ Pacific Northwest Fall Weather: Are You Prepared?
Living in Washington means beautiful fall colors, but it also means preparing for heavy rain, wind, and occasional power outages.
October is a great time to ask yourself:
Does my homeowners insurance cover wind damage?
What's the difference between water damage and flood insurance?
Do I have coverage if a tree falls on my home or vehicle?
Would my current coverage meet my needs if I experienced a major loss?
Not all types of water damage are covered by a standard homeowners policy, and flood insurance is generally purchased separately.
Our team is happy to review your existing coverage, explain available options, and help you better understand how your insurance may respond to different situations.
