Speaking With Kimberly About Home Insurance

Here’s what Kimberly has to say about insurance in Central Texas.


This market is so fast-paced and crazy that by the time you close your home, you may not have even

thought about insurance. Do you need it? How much does it cost? These are important questions,

so to help us answer them, we’re speaking with Kimberly Curb-Bridenstine, our favorite Allstate

Insurance representative.


How long have you been in the area?


I’m from Killeen; in fact, I’m a generational Killeenite. I’ve grown up here and had the opportunity to see the city change and grow.


How long have you been in the insurance business?


I’ve had my Allstate agency for 16 years, and it’s been a great opportunity. I love being able to serve our military.


So what are some common things people need to know about insurance?


Whether you’re looking at a forever home or an investment property, insurance is crucial. Rates can differ based on area, but Central Texas is in a pretty good spot. We don’t get the hailstorms that Dallas and Oklahoma do, and we don’t have to worry about hurricane season as much as the Houston area. No matter what your insurance needs are, talk to a trusted representative so that you’re sure to get the best rate possible and adequate coverage.


What are some things people need to beware of when it comes to insurance?


The biggest trend in insurance is online shopping and out-of-area quoting. These features are incredibly convenient, but they come with risk. Algorithms never truly see your home or understand where you live, so they can easily under- or over-insure you.


"A local representative will know your area like the back of their hand."
