That price seems about right. You will normally see that a book of business is purchased about 2 1/2 times the commision it brings in: Allstate's 1.4 mil book brings in 15% of 1.4 mil... 210,000... If you multiplied that by 2 1/2 times you wil get = 525,000.00 you are getting a better deal than you expect.. _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved.

I am interested in becoming an INDY agent under either Farmers OR Allstate. Allstate seems to have better advertising and offer better rates. How is Allstates training program? I herd Farmers is weak> any ideas? _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved.

I have spoken to an agent who has indicated he wants to sell his agency. He shared some confidential information with me such as his earnings for 2008 and other pertinent information. I have a degee in marketing as well as sales experience and money to invest. He said that I would need to speak to a representattive from Allstate. That was three weeks ago and I haven't heard from this individual even though they have my e-mail & ph. #. What do I do? Thanks. _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved.
