Having successfully navigated daily operations for $15 million brokerages, we know exactly what it takes to safeguard your dealership while maintaining highly competitive premiums.

We operate as your one-stop dealership insurance shop, offering continuous updates and explaining complex coverages in simple, actionable terms. We proudly guarantee a 24-hour response time and commit to re-shopping your garage policy every year to ensure you have the absolute best rate from our network of 15+ carriers, including Aviva Canada, Wawanesa, and Intact.

Our dealership insurance process begins with a comprehensive risk discovery session where we thoroughly review your current policy and identify critical coverage gaps. We closely analyze factors like your lot security, test-drive protocols, and daily inventory values to understand exactly where your dealership is vulnerable. From there, we launch a multi-carrier market search, actively shopping quotes among top providers to build an ironclad safety net for your enterprise.

Once we secure the most competitive options, we present you with side-by-side quote comparisons, taking the time to educate you on the nuances of each policy type. We break down the exact costs, general liabilities, and physical damage limits in layman's terms so you can make an informed, confident decision for your showroom. Finally, we execute a seamless policy finalization and commit to mandatory yearly reviews, guaranteeing your coverages scale securely alongside your growing business.

How We Secure Dealership Insurance Rates

Our Proven Insurance Workflow

We start with a discovery discussion to identify coverage gaps, then source multi carrier quotes. We review your options, finalize the policy digitally, and enforce mandatory reviews at renewal to keep your coverage optimal.

  1. Discover Your Needs

    We review your current policies, identify coverage gaps, and note any recent life or business changes that could affect your insurance.

  2. Shop the Market

    We obtain competitive multi‑carrier quotes and design coverage options tailored to your specific needs and risk profile.

  3. Compare and Choose

    We present clear side‑by‑side comparisons of prices, coverages, and key risks so you can confidently select the right policy.

  4. Activate and Review

    We finalize and process your chosen policy, then conduct mandatory annual reviews at renewal to keep your coverage up to date.

    I had a wonderful experience getting my insurance done from them. Gurtaj and Michael went out of their way to help me as my previous insurance brokers got my mom’s insurance messed up. I am glad that I went to them. I highly recommend them if you want any kind of insurance without any hassle.
