The sale

How it ran

Secure Protection Insurance was founded in 2003 and built a sizable book of business.

In 2010 we sold it to a larger Houston agency that wanted to expand from health insurance into property and casualty, and for which that book was the attraction.

What decided the price

What buyers look at in an insurance agency

Retention

The percentage of policies that renew each year. It is the most important number in the sale, and buyers check it carrier by carrier.

The mix of business

Personal lines, commercial lines, and life and benefits are valued differently. Commercial accounts are larger, and also more concentrated.

Carrier appointments

Whether your contracts with carriers can pass to a buyer. With a captive agency, the carrier has to approve the buyer, and its rules shape the whole sale.
