Why We Love Having Greystone Insurance as a Partner


Here’s my recent Q&A session with the owner of Greystone Insurance.

Today I have the pleasure to be with Jim Bower, owner of Greystone Insurance, to discuss how important it is to have a yearly checkup with your local Insurance agent. According to Jim, one of the most important things you can do as an insurance buyer is to have an agent look at your insurance regularly. Insurance companies are coming out with new products and pricing all the time. Most of those new products are better for the customer. This means better pricing, better coverage, and it may be even easier to manage and pay premiums. To take advantage, you need to talk with an agent and often reapply for the newest product and pricing. You don’t get these things automatically, regardless of how long and loyal a customer you have been.


Greystone partners with a dozen different top insurance companies


Very often when helping a family or business owner, Jim finds that their existing coverage just doesn’t match up with what is going on in the household or business. Are they paying for things that they don’t need? Or worse yet, were they even properly covered in the first place? Jim and his team encounter situations like this all the time. So what should all of you homeowners out there do? Even if you have everything up to date, you should evaluate your insurance agent and the services they provide. If an agent only works with one company, they are going to be limited in what they can offer. At Greystone, they partner with over a dozen top insurance companies, including Erie Insurance, Central PA’s leading insurer for homes and autos! Thanks to Jim for joining us. This is such a great partnership between two companies that share a culture of service people with excellence and integrity. You’ll find both of these qualities with Greystone Insurance and Joy Daniels Real Estate Group. If you have any insurance needs or questions whatsoever, reach out to them at (717) 695-3177 or visit them online. We love serving our clients. If you have a real estate question for us, please call 717-695-3177 or email info@joydaniels.com. We have buyer and seller specialists ready to assist you.

I was named “Best Real Estate Agent,” and the Jennifer Holsta Group won “Best Real Estate Team.” I continue to be amazed by what our group has achieved as a result of our strong relationships with Jennifer and the community. Did you know that we’ve been on the list of the 50 fastest-growing companies five times? We continue to rank as one of America's best by Real Trends magazine.

It's about how we made people feel and the results we provided through our incredibly effective marketing strategy and phenomenal sales professionals.



Thank you for making these coveted awards possible.

Everyone in this organization loves accountability and contributing at a super high level. That’s evidenced by having the highest average agent productivity in the local marketplace. It speaks to how well we work as a team to create a client-centric experience. Thank you to our team for their hard work and dedication.

Tips for Teaching Your Kids to Be Financially Responsible


Today I’m going over some great tips for introducing your kids to money and the concept of financial responsibility.

There are a variety of opportunities in the Central Pennsylvania real estate market for both buyers and sellers. If you're a prospective buyer click here for a full home search, or if you're considering placing your home on the market, get a free home value report, right here.

Teaching kids financial responsibility is incredibly important. Doing it now will create the building blocks they’ll need to be financially responsible later in life.

There are some great tips for getting your kids on the right track to understanding financial responsibility that I want to share you with.

First, pay an allowance. Kids could have a difficult time grasping where money comes from if they have none of their own. Earning money around the house for doing chores is a great way for them to become familiar with having their own finances. Before paying, sit down and set expectations such as what chores need to be done, what the timelines are, what amount of money will be paid for each chore, and when payday is. This will not only build their work ethic, but show them that money is earned and not a gift. Also, make sure to teach them that everyone must pitch in to keep a house running smoothly, and therefore not every chore will come with a payment.

Introduce them to the concept of saving. For every dollar earned, 20% to 30% should be put away for the future. You could have them save for a big purchase, like a bike, or establish their own savings account. You can even have them decorate their own jar to act as a savings bank. Once a month, sit down with your kids and count how much money they have deposited into the jar and go over their total with them.
Be consistent with your lessons and your kids will be well on their way to becoming financially responsible adults.
When grocery shopping, ask your kids to help you compare prices, brands, and sales. Have them keep a tally and try to guess the total purchase price at checkout.

Once they have a good sense of the concept of money, give them a challenge. If they need new school clothes, give them money or a credit card to purchase those clothes on their own. You of course can guide them with what to buy, just make sure they are paying attention to how many items they can purchase within their budget. This way, they’ll learn how to make smart purchases and begin to understand the way credit works.

It’s incredibly important that they learn how to handle money that isn’t necessarily in the form of cash, as today many transactions are done electronically.

Never give in when they ask for exceptions to the rules. Be consistent with your lessons and your kids will be well on their way to becoming financially responsible adults.

If you have any questions about this topic, are looking to buy or sell a home, or have any other questions about real estate, feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you!
