Great video! Thanks for all the info that you share, it’s very helpful.

Absolutely, an llc is, in my opinion, the best way to go. My main reason would be the protection it offers. Secondly, there are some tax benefits being that you owe on what is left in the company at the end of the year.

Ran into your stuff this last month. I am a retired adjuster after 34 years working staff and independent. Did Hurricanes Hugo, Andrew, Katrina and many more unknown storms.

@@latisewilson4561 i guess i enjoyed the meeting of people that thought it would never happen to them and it did. Parents of deceased children in car accidents, large tornado and hurricane events. It wasn't boring as ever day was different . Helping people when disaster hits them was the pay off. I was a Santa Claus adjuster not a Grench adjuster. I looked for ways to pay. That is the trick. I had an attitude of "its only money and its not even mine".

We just applied! We have worked the last month to get every license we can and hope to hear from this company soon! We cant wait to start our journey!

How is your career going?

Taylor Jones host a prerecorded State Farm property cert Webinar that they send to you when you take the test through Eberl. It is by far the best available. She doesn't waste anytime on things you don't need to know and she explains things very clearly. I think it's the best way to get that Certification through Eberl. Thanks Matt

I’ve been a claims adjuster for 8 years. Worked for 4 insurance companies and I’m licensed with several states. However, my job is very different than yours. As an auto claims adjuster. (Inside) adjuster. I’m the deciding who is at fault for the accident, getting statements from the drivers, witnesses, paying or denying claims, and a million more things, We also assigned appraisers to do estimates. All this hard work we only make around 50k a year, max 55 and 60k is pretty high up there. I don’t pass the 53k and no matter where I moved to they start us back at 50k. I can read and not only read but I’m the one that has to explain the estimate to the insured or claimant. However , I’ve never been out in the field or written an estimate and most adjusters that you deal are always inside a building. When you call what’s going with my claim? That’s me. I want to be out there, that’s what I want, How can I switch to that. I already have the licenses, I do the investigation, coverage, liability, I know how to read an explain an estimate or like 20 a day. How do I transition from being an inside claims adjuster from Progressive insurance making 50k a year to being an independent adjuster, being out in the field and making 80k a year. How?

Hey, Mark..

I'm retired from a major carrier as their national trainer for commercial property claims. Knowing I was going to work as an IA, the first thing I did was create my LLC. I got a great CPA to help, and still employee her for my accounting. The LLC has signficant tax benefits and limits liability exposure. It's a critical tool for a professional adjuster.

I WANT to be a claims adjuster, but I have failed two assessment tests to even get an interview from Progressive and another company. I want to do this job, but no one is giving me the opportunity. How can I get past the assessment? How can I become a claims adjuster without paying $2k for a course?
