Every day I put my heart and soul into representing my clients so when I get a email like the this it means the world to me.

To whom it may concern,

Talk about down to the wire. Ward came into our house selling process at a not so good time with the real estate market. My husband had already started a job out of state and we put ourselves in a time crunch to sell. Ward met me at the house, looked me in they eye and promised to do his best, and that he did. In the course of the following weeks he set up professional photography, flyers and videos. Ward really did everything he could and the house sold within the timeline that we established. He did a great job and we would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Sincerely,

Lydia

Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey rejects insurance companies’ average 42.2% rate hike request
Proposed rates called ‘excessive,’ ‘unfairly discriminatory.’
RALEIGH
North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey today said “No” to the insurance companies’ average 42.2% proposed increase in homeowners’ insurance rates.

“I haven’t seen the evidence to justify such a drastic rate increase on North Carolina consumers,” Commissioner Causey said. “The Department of Insurance has received more than 24,000 emailed comments on this proposal, with hundreds more policyholders commenting by mail. Scores more consumers spoke during a public comment forum. North Carolina consumers deserve a more thorough review of this proposal. I intend to make sure they get that review.”

Proposed rates by the North Carolina Rate Bureau on behalf of the insurance companies writing policies in the state range from 4.3% in some of the mountain counties to 99.4% in some of the beach areas.

“Homeowners were shocked with the high amount requested by the insurance companies, and so was I,” Commissioner Causey said.

In the notice for hearing, Commissioner Causey called the insurance companies’ proposed increase “excessive and unfairly discriminatory.”

The N.C. Rate Bureau, which represents companies that write insurance policies in the state, is not a part of the Department of Insurance. The Rate Bureau was created by the General Assembly in 1977. Any insurance companies writing homeowners’ insurance or personal automobile insurance policies in North Carolina must be a member of the Rate Bureau.

Commissioner Causey has set a hearing date for Oct. 7 at 10 a.m. State law gives the Insurance Commissioner 45 days to issue an order once the hearing concludes.

Merry Christmas and Gods Blessings to you all!

In our last business meeting of the year our boss, Jim Allen Challenged us to pay it forward. He then gave everyone a $100.00 Dollars. He asked that we share our random act of kindness to enhance or encourage others to do the same during this Christmas Season and bless someone in the process.
Which brings me to Bubba, Bubba is a 36-year-old man who was diagnosed Angelman's Syndrome which is referred to (Happy Puppet Syndrome) His syndrome has caused him to be non-verbal albeit 4 words, another side effect of this disease causes his leg muscles to stay tense which makes it very difficult for him to walk.
Bubba requires 24-hour Aday care which is loving supplied by his mother and his sister.
There is no such thing as a normal schedule. at Bubbas house, you just might see him at 3 am as you will at 3pm. Bubba graduated high school in 2009 which he proudly walked the graduation stage with his fellow classmates as pictured in the left photo.
Before I close, I'd be remised if I didn't tell you how it is to be around Bubba. First and foremost, he is always smiling, and you can become his best friend just by stopping by to say hello. If you bring him a baseball cap, you're guaranteed a special spot in his heart.
In truth no matter Bubba's challenges I'm always the one who is blessed after spending time with him.
I hope this short story blesses you in some way and encourages us all to remember it only takes a minute to be kind and generous with what we've been given.
Merry Christmas My Friends.!
