Did you know the odds of picking a perfect March Madness bracket is a mere 1 in  9,223,372,036,854,775,808. That is 1 in 9.2 quintillion, according to many mathematicians! Each year, fans spend countless hours working on their brackets. Some are more familiar with Duke’s perimeter shot than their own insurance policies… even though the odds of getting hit by an uninsured driver or having a major loss to your home or business, are astronomically higher than a 16 seed upsetting a 1.

At Buckner insurance, we are all too familiar with the game of statistics. We know anything can happen at any time to even those with the best odds. Like all teams preparing for their season, it’s best to have a game plan and be ready. Life moves at a fast pace just like basketball and you never know when a turnover could cost you the game.

Start with reviewing all of your policies with your agent at least once a year or every time you have a major life event, like adding new players to your team, when your oldest goes off to the Pros, when you acquire that championship ring, or build a new stadium. We are here not only to help coach you but also to protect you. Think of us as your full court press defense against life’s unexpected!

​Grange insurance is one of the many companies we represent and write for in our agency. They are such an awesome company!

After 8 long months, football season is upon us, and with it comes traditional tailgates and good old fashioned get togethers at your home. Regardless if you’re a Bengals fan or a Browns fan it’s important to know you are covered for those unexpected events and we’re not talking about Cleveland winning. Are you protected if your neighbor trips and falls in the living room while celebrating a touchdown? What happens if someone is injured on the grill? Good insurance coverage is your defense for potential liability claims against you. Don’t get caught off guard without these key coverages.
​
Homeowner Insurance policies have a coverage called Medical Payments to Others. This coverage is designed to pay medical expenses to guests who are injured in your home regardless of who’s at fault. This limit is usually anywhere from $1,000 to $5,000. Homeowner’s policies also offer liability coverage.  This covers incidents you are legally responsible for. These limits are much larger and tend to be anywhere from $100,000 to $500,000. You can extend your liability limits to $1 million and above with the purchase of an Umbrella Policy. The extra Umbrella protection on average cost around $160 a year.
