What people in the Quad Cities usually call us about

Most calls start with something that just changed: a new house, a new baby, a parent getting older, or a letter from an insurance company that said no.

Why a local, independent agent

We work for you, not one company

A captive agent can only sell one carrier's policies. We compare more than 40, so you see real choices side by side.

You talk to us

Ben or Andrea answers. Not a call center and not an 800 number, and that doesn't change after you sign.

We're on Arizona time too

No daylight saving math. Call Monday through Friday, 9am to 6pm, or ask for an evening appointment if that works better around your job.

Why we take this personally

Ben spent years as a photographer, capturing the moments families care about most. Then he realized protecting those families mattered even more than photographing them. Andrea left her real estate career two weeks after he launched the agency.

“In 2024 I had three brain surgeries. When I woke up from each one, I wasn't worrying about whether Andrea and the kids would be okay financially. The coverage was already in place. That's the peace of mind we want for every family we work with.”

Questions Prescott Valley families ask

Do you only help people in Prescott Valley?
No. We live and work in Prescott Valley, and we're licensed in all 50 states. Most of our conversations happen by phone or video, so it works the same whether you're down the street or across the country.
Does living in Prescott Valley change what life insurance costs?
Not much. What you pay comes mostly from your age, your health, whether you use tobacco, and how much coverage you want. Different carriers can price the same person differently, which is why comparing companies matters more than your ZIP code.
I've been turned down for life insurance before. Can you still help?
Maybe. A denial from one company is one company's rulebook. Carriers look at health history differently, and we've found coverage for people who had been turned down more than once. We can't promise approval, but we'll tell you honestly what your options look like. More on getting covered after a denial.
Will you pressure me to buy something?
No. We'll show you what we found and explain it in plain English. If it isn't a fit, we'll tell you to look elsewhere.
Who will I actually talk to?
Ben or Andrea Wood. Not a call center and not an 800 number. Call (928) 889-6339, Monday through Friday 9am to 6pm Arizona time, or ask for an evening appointment.
