How much does the average state farm agent make?

for the respect of all agents and confidentiality in dealing with staff members this question should in all fairness not be posted on the internet for all to see.

Oh I disagree people need to know why would you want to hide this answer. The reason the company does not want prospective agents to know is they would have an extremely difficult time recruiting agents if they knew the truth about the current contract and how many lives it has ruined. You should contact. NASFA if you are considering being an agent with this company. NASFA is an organization of agents that work for this co. , but are not controlled as what they say by the co. The co. will tell you that they are just a group of angry agents that are against to co. The truth is just the opposite they are a group that wants to see the co. prosper. but will be open and honest about the current situation aka contract where new agents are barely able to make a living and many do not. You need to know what you are doing if you leave a good career for this opportunity because it is in most cases a job that you will never make over $50,000 many makes much less than that.

.

Depends on many things mostly which contract they are on. Currently there are three contracts and it depends on when the agent was hired. Agents on the first two contracts make high incomes and most are in the top 1% of income earners. The current contract is highly in favor of the company and most new agents which is agents hired 1-1-2004 or later make less than $50,000 many go so far in debt they never recover and they file bankruptcy. The new contract is a terrible deal compared to industry standards. The agent gets about 1/2 the commission an Independent agent makes and the agent has to pay all expenses. The company is not be clear to new agents how much they will make. You start on a one year contract & at the end of that year you either sign your long term contract or are terminated. Many new agents are being terminated just before it is time to sign the long term contract without and advance warning that they are not so to speak making it. The company is leaving these new agents with debt. long term leases and expensive office furniture packages and then they start threatning the agent about the do not compete clause in their first year contract. So the new agent is forced to file bankruptcy.

This is not a good opportunity IMO and should be avoided. There are a lot better situations for someone that wants to offer Insurance and or financial products to the public. You do not own the business with this company. They have no retirement plan. Their pay is at an industry low and 2-3 times as many agents fail as they did 10 years ago on the previous contracts. Many make negative amounts the first 2-5 years and have to borrow every dime they need to live.

What do you do if you are rear ended by a rental vehicle?

You handle it just like any other insurance claim. However, you (or your insurer) will talk to the rental company in charge of the vehicle rather than the person driving it. Still get all of the other drivers information though. Don't worry, most legit rental companies have fleet insurance that covers their cars. The driver of the rental car may be held liable for damages to the rental if they didn't purchase insurance on the rental themselves. Keep in mind, this IS NOT insurance on the car. When a driver purchases insurance on a rental, they are simply paying a fee to avoid any damages to the rental car should they be at fault in an accident or not.

Im i covered if someone without insurance crashes my car?

If someone wit no insurance crashes into my car and they have no insurance

Your own insurance company would pay to have your vehicle fixed and pay for any physical claims you make. They would then attempt to recover the funds through the person that crashed into you.

Keep in mind, insurance companies always look for a way out of paying so in this case, be sure you call the police, document everything and try to have witnesses. That way, they can't say you were party at fault.

Can you register a car if it is in someone else name?

Yes, you can register a car if the title is in someone elses name. The title is a record of the owner - the registration is a record of the driver - and in many cases these may be different people, for example, a mom letting her son borrow a car for college, borrowing a friends car for an extended time, husband and wife, etc.

Different states require different things to do this, in my state, I borrowed a friends car for over a year and walked right in to the DMV and registered it no problem. Some states require a signed document by the title holder, or some states require the registrant and title holder to go to the DMV together. Some states will allow more than on registrant on a car registration, such as a husband and wife or two roommates sharing a car.

What if you get permission to drive your friends car and you crash it what will happen if she i don't want my insurance to cover it what will happen?

What is uninsured motorists insurance?

Uninsured motorist coverage is a type of first-party auto insurance that compensates one if he/she is injured in a collision due to the negligence of someone else who does not have bodily injury liability coverage. Essentially, it pays the same sort of damages as the at-fault party's bodily injury liability coverage would have paid if it existed. It only pays for compensable bodily injuries--not property damage.

In many States, uninsured motorist coverage must be offered in the same amount as one's liability coverage. However, the insured usually has the right to select lower limits or reject it altogether.

Why is Auto Insurance Necessary?

Car insurance provides financial protection in case you are involved in an auto accident. If an accident occurs, an auto insurance policy provides financial coverage to pay resulting vehicle damages, property damages, and/or medical costs. The amount of money the policy provides versus the amount of money you pay as premium will depend on the type of coverage purchased, the policy limits of each coverage, and the deductible (in the case of non-liability coverage, this is the amount that you pay out of pocket before the insurer's duty to pay is triggered).

Who is at fault if you are pulling into a parking space and are more than halfway into it when another driver reverses and hits the rear right door of your car?

The driver of the other vehicle. You were moving and they were stationary, hence they didn't yield right of way to you. Chance are, the parking space was private property, so a citation wouldn't be issued. Laws in your state may vary.
