Protecting Your Home, Your Family & Your Future: Insurance Matters More Than You Think

Your home is likely one of your biggest investments—but are you truly protected?

This week, Cheryl Scheidell welcomes identical twin sisters Stephanie Schaffroth and April Schaffroth, local Farmers Insurance Agency Owners and trusted insurance advisors.

Stephanie has been serving families and business owners since 2004, while April has been helping clients protect what matters most since 2008. Together, they believe in educating—not selling—and helping people understand the difference between simply having insurance and being properly insured.

In this episode you'll learn:
When a vacant home needs a different insurance policy
Why simply filing a claim—even with no payout—can affect your insurance history
The one insurance policy many people wait too long to purchase
The one question every homeowner should ask their insurance agent this week
Why "full coverage" doesn't always mean you're fully protected
Why flood insurance is not automatically included in most homeowners policies
Why your insurance agent should know about newly purchased jewelry and valuables
Why renters insurance is important—even if you're renting temporarily
