Sunday’s Post 10/30/11 –  Residents of Alabama who have homeowners insurance with Alfa Insurance Company can now enjoy a multi-policy discount with their new auto insurance coverage just introduced by the insurance carrier. Just recently, Alfa Insurance Co. publicized that it will no longer countersign and underwrite a mono-line homeowner policies in Alabama. According to the company, this will only provide coverage to homeowners who place their auto insurance with the company. From this, agents will have the choice of using other carriers for their independent homeowners business.  Alfa Insurance Corporation has established its name as a property & casualty insurer which provides insurance and other financial services in the United States. It operates in states of Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Indiana, Ohio, Virginia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Florida and North Carolina.  The addition of the auto insurance product will give their 500 independent agents will be in a better position to cater the needs of each client. 

The companies new personal approach will work best when they can attend to all a person’s insurance needs. Many Alfa agents are concerned with the idea of tying up home and car insurance has become a trend not only with Alfa, but also with other auto and homeowners insurance insurers.  The feeling is if other companies will follow with the same idea so patrons will not find themselves choosing between two insurers, or be stranded with the decision they have to make one.
