I have a client wanting to buy a P&C agency and I have been helping him look around to find a decent deal.
Farmers agencies are a dime a dozen it seems. Basically, it looks like you can get one for a song and a dream. The amount of agencies for sale sets up a red flag.
While we aren't looking for captive, given the money to invest we could possibly pick up multiples of these agencies and streamline operations in theory.
My Allstate guy told me that Farmers just bent a ton of their agents over not too long ago and they are looking for new blood.
Anyone have any insight to this or owning a Farmers agency?
