You do not have to live here to work with me

Licensed across British Columbia. Most of this is done by phone and email — the corridor is where I am, not who I can help.

Where the local part actually matters, and where it does not

Being local matters for knowing that Squamish houses have suites, that Whistler condos get rented out, and that the valley is a long way from a fire hall. It matters much less for the mechanics of writing a policy, which is phone calls, email and documents.

So if you have moved away, or you found me some other way, distance is usually not the obstacle people assume.

Who this tends to suit

What I will tell you honestly

If you are somewhere in BC where a local broker would genuinely serve you better — a specialised commercial risk that needs someone on the ground, for instance — I will say so rather than take the business and do it at arm's length. That happens rarely, but it happens.

And one thing that is the same everywhere in the province: ICBC Basic Autoplan is priced by ICBC and identical at every broker in BC. Nobody can discount it, wherever they are.

Common questions

Are you licensed outside the Sea to Sky corridor?

Yes — licensed across British Columbia. The corridor is where I am based, not the limit of who I can work with.

Can everything be done remotely?

Most of it. Quotes, renewals, changes and documents are all handled by phone and email. A small number of transactions still need an in-person signature, and I will flag those upfront.

Is it worth using a broker who is not in my town?

It depends what you value. If you want the same person each time who knows your file, distance matters very little. If you need someone physically walking a commercial site, it can matter a lot.

Do I pay more for being out of the area?

No. Your premium is based on your risk and your address, not on where your broker sits. And ICBC Basic Autoplan is the same price at every broker in the province.
