Attention Teachers Under 25
Years Old:
Ever notice you're getting terrible car insurance rates because you're not
an "adult" until 25? I work with Educators Personal Insurance Agency which
offers you the "adult" rate if you're a licensed teacher...no waiting until age
25. That can save you a ton! David and Kristin Surver are agents for over 1,000
families—many in Minnetonka. To get a quote, just give us a call at 763-449-5768
