Building Relationships

Enjoy the personalized attention you deserve! Karstens Financial is committed to treating you with courtesy and integrity.  We are realistic, honest and will work hard to give the very best advice and help you achieve results you want. 

What does this means to you? Karstens Financial works with a number of difference insurance companies not just one! Why get one quote when you are searching for coverage, when we can provide multiple! For instance, we work directly with over 20 different auto and home insurance carriers to find the best coverage and cost to meet your needs. Unlike directly sold insurance carriers (State Farm, Allstate, Farmers) will price out all of our carriers to find the best cost and coverage.  When you think of insurance, think of Karstens Financial! Our goal is to make sure you have the answers you need to make proper informed decisions about your insurance.  

Karstens Financial offers an Insurance and Finance review as a complimentary service because we want you to clearly understand your insurance policies, your plans, and most importantly your options. This is a meeting where you and one of our team members reviews your current situation – family, business, finances, property, and long-term plans and goals. We use this information to identify risks you may not have considered and we look for any discount opportunities. We identify your goals and evaluate your current plans

Every minute counts…Don’t find out the hard way about protection you wish you had. An Insurance Review is easy and it’s complimentary.
