FL agent asked:


I want to get my 1-20 (Florida) and open a wholesale surplus lines brokerage firm. How difficult is it to get approval from insurance carriers to write business for them. I will not be dealing with the general public, but would be the middle man between independent agencies & actual insurance comapnies. My concern is being a new business, without an exisiting book of business, how likely are the insurance carriers to give me a shot at quoting & writing their products / policies.

I go to them for a quote and they give me a really good monthly rate. So after going through all the hassle of signing the paperwork, I notice that they have me as “Married” when in fact, I am single. When I pointed this out, they said “Oh, just make somebody up.” So basically, they tried to get me to commit fraud. There were a few more questionable things that they did and I cant get ahold of anybody there to deal with it. What happens if I get into an accident? They would investigate and see that I am not married and void the whole thing.

My broker put my business down for Home Health Care Services but we provide training to special needs adults in their home and do not administer medication. We do monitor their medication intake to make sure they take them properly per doctor guidelines but that’s all. The quote was much higher for that class code compared to our other services.
