Credit Services, Inspection Advice & Aflac

Today was our monthly office sales meeting and we have three informative guests. I wanted to pass along some of the great information that was shared with our office agents.

Donna Perkins - Kansas City Credit Services was our first guest. She spoke with us a few weeks ago. She is a financial consumer advicate. Her job is to pick about your credit report looking for inaccuracies to help you lower your bills. They have a proven success of 75% to 85% removal of misleading, outdated and unverifiable information from most credit reports. They have been in business since 1991 and her team has 35 years experience. They offer a free credit consultation and if they can't help you, they'll find someone who can. To contact Donna - dperkins@kccreditservices.com

Ed Sullivan - Ed Sullivan Inspections was our second guest. Ed talked about the Utility Flue that service your hot water heater and furnace and how it is necessary that this flue has a metal liner to protect you and your home. This liner is necessary because many older homes have older appliances which had 9-12 in flues. Newer appliances have 5 in flues. There are a few different options. One of the less expensive options is to get a diverter for your water heater. You could also get a flexible liner for your flue. Make sure when you get your home inspectied the inspector checks the roof and flue liner. He also mentioned that you need to be careful with gas burning fireplaces that are VENT-FREE. These need to be in large, open rooms.

Seve Sterthman - Aflac was our last speaker. He talked about all the different policies that Aflac offers that give cash back to policy holders for medical bills. Once you pick your policy, your rate never goes unless you switch to a new policy. Their Accident policy covers anything "that comes at you from the outside" - including car accidents, falling from a ladder and even poison ivy. You can have more than one plan/policy and they do not cancel out the other.
