Customers at Community Insurance Center, Ltd. are familiar with the
personal, professional service at competitive prices from the
experienced staff. Community Insurance, located in downtown Oxford, is
known for being able to custom fit a policy to a customer’s needs. The
full-service agency offers extremely competitive rates largely through
three companies, Pioneer State Mutual, Auto-Owners and Allied Insurance.
Even through tough economic times such as these, Community Insurance has
been helping customers to survive the ?”hard market,” a market where
insurance premiums are driven upwards. Don Harrison, one of Community
Insurance’s owners, feels though that the market is beginning to level
out. ?”We don’t foresee the premiums really rising,” he stated. For the
past two years, insurance companies across the nation have struggled to
see a return in their investments; however, Community Insurance has
still seen growth in several areas, such as their commercial coverage.
“We have a good position and are competitive,” said Harrison. ?”We’re in
very good shape when offering pricing and availability of coverage.”
“The markets we represent are still writing the business and writing it
competitively.” If doing business in the Lake Orion area is more
convenient for you, don’t forget there is a Community Insurance office
there in addition to the one in Oxford. Harrison said the firm opened an
office at 436 S. Broadway in the attractive Lighthouse building over two
years ago, to better serve customers south of Oxford and Lake Orion.
Another important change to note is that Community Insurance Center,
Ltd. has gone on the Internet. Customers can now make changes to their
current policies or get quotes for new policies right on-line. ?”This is
something we started midway through the year in 2002,” said Harrison.
Community Insurance, Center, Ltd. has been a fixture in the area since
the 1950s. The company was started by Robert Knauf who had one premise
in mind, to service his clients the most professional way he knew how,
said Harrison. ?”I still think we work very hard to provide the best
possible coverage and I think we do that because we work at the business
and keep up with the changes,” he said. ?”We continue our education
within the industry to insure that we stay on top of all the changes. I
think that’s very important.” You’ll find the knowledgable agents at
