Independent Agencies Sales Alerts – March 2019 Edition

Finding the right insurance agency to purchase can be difficult because the majority of agencies for sale simply aren’t listed publicly. While this can make acquiring an agency a bit of a challenge, the process is a lot easier if you work with an intermediary like Springtree Group.

As a Registered Buyer with STG, you will be the first to know when new agencies become available. Our outreach teams are focused daily on gathering information about every insurance agency that is ready for acquisition. In addition to our outreach team, our company leaders network on a daily basis with our professional network, which includes experienced CPAs, financial advisors, lawyers, DOIs, PEGs, and even agency owners themselves who are looking to sell.

Springtree Group’s narrow focus allows us to hone in on the one thing our buyers are interested in. We make it our goal to be the first to know when an agency is available for purchase, and we often know when an agency owner first starts to think about selling. When you team up with STG, you’ll also be the first to know.

Remember: even if you find the right agency today, the financial process of making the sale official often takes months, so act quickly in order to own your new agency by early summer.
