E63 - Your Guide to Homeowners Insurance with Rich Sabatowski

  • Summary

  • Insurance is often the most overlooked and undervalued aspect of home ownership. However, this is a type of coverage that pays for the repairs or replacement cost to your home in case it experiences any damage or covers you if someone gets injured on your property. It provides a safety net that can help protect you against everything from material damages to liability claims.  Most people who own a property may know that there are different types of coverage available, but they don't know how to figure out which is best for them. Whether you own a home or are planning to buy one, how do you find the best insurance coverage for your needs, at the best possible price? In today’s episode of the Expert(ish) Podcast, Jay talks with Rich Sabatowski, Owner and Insurance Agent at Beach Break Insurance Agency, about homeowners insurance, why it is important, and how it covers residential and commercial properties. Rich started his career in hospitality working his way up from washing dishes, bussing tables, serving and bartending to General Manager of some amazing restaurants. With a passion for helping people protect what they have worked so hard for, Rich and his family moved to San Diego and began laying the groundwork for the Beach Break Insurance Agency. As an independent agency, they do what is best for their clients, providing them the coverage that best fits their needs, at the best possible rates. Enjoy! If you are looking for an inexpensive and super convenient healthcare option, check out SkillMil Telehealth Services.

It's the right thing to do." - Rich Sabatowski 41:47 - "We have two goals. We want to make sure that your rates are reasonable, competitive, and as low as we can pass them, we get them. But we also want to make sure that your coverage is appropriate for what you're doing." - Rich Sabatowski  Engage with Rich SabatowskiPhone: 619-567-7227LinkedInBeach Break Insurance Agency  Connect with Expert(ish) Podcast Host JAY JOHNSONCall (858) 925- 4536WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagram Listen to more episodes of the  Expert(ish) PodcastiTunesSpotify
