Home Insurance
If you owned property elsewhere, the structure of a Georgia homeowners policy will look familiar in places and not in others. Mark maps the differences rather than assuming you already know them.

Mark has lived in countries around the world and in several states before Georgia. Moving means learning a new set of rules every time, and insurance is one of the less obvious ones — which is why explaining it to people starting from scratch became the part of the job he is best at.

Every place Mark has lived had its own assumptions about insurance — what was mandatory, what was normal to carry, what nobody bothered with. Arriving somewhere and discovering your instincts are calibrated to a different system is a specific kind of disorientation, and he has been through it more than once.
Georgia has its own version of that. Coverage that was standard where a client came from may be unusual here, and the reverse happens too. Rather than assuming a baseline, Mark asks what someone carried before and uses it as the reference point: this is what you had, here is what that translates to in Georgia, here is where the two genuinely differ.
He works with a wide range of backgrounds, and the common thread is that people arrive with different starting knowledge. Some have decades of insurance history in another country that will not transfer. Some have never held a policy in their own name. The explanation adjusts to the person rather than the other way around.

Explore home insuranceGeorgia requires 25/50/25 liability at minimum. Whether that is close to what you carried before depends entirely on where you are coming from, so Mark starts by asking.
Explore auto insuranceFor clients whose family is spread across states or countries, the useful question is who would need money and where. Mark works through that before discussing policy types.
Explore life insurancePutting home and auto with one agency simplifies the paperwork considerably — helpful when you are already managing a move, a closing, and a new set of accounts.
Explore bundling optionsBring what you have, including a policy from another state. Mark will tell you what carries over, what does not apply in Georgia, and where you may now be under-covered.
Schedule a reviewThree steps, and you can stop at any of them.
He asks what you carried before and what you understood it to cover. That gives the conversation a reference point instead of starting from a blank form and a list of Georgia statutes.
You get a straight comparison: this is the Georgia equivalent, this is where the coverage is genuinely different, this is where your old assumptions would cost you.
Nothing is decided in the first call. Options come in writing, and coverage only starts once a policy has been issued and you have confirmed it.
Call during business hours for the quickest answer, or send the form and Mark will come back to you.
