About Absolute Insurance Agency
Absolute Insurance Agency is an independent insurance agency in Clive, Iowa, serving the Des Moines metro and clients in 25 states. Founded by Jeff Eastvold, who has been licensed in Iowa since 1991, Absolute has grown from a small local shop into a full-lines agency of about 16 people, while keeping the personal service and local roots it started with.
Who is Absolute Insurance?
Absolute Insurance is a family-rooted, independent agency built on long-lasting relationships. Founder Jeff Eastvold got his start at his father's agency—filing and mailing policies before he was old enough to work—and established Absolute on a simple principle he repeats every day.
“I built Absolute on one simple idea: take care of people, and everything else takes care of itself. That belief is still what this agency runs on today.”
What makes Absolute Insurance different?
Absolute is independent, which means it works for you, not for one insurance company. Rather than a single company's products, our agents compare policies from 15 to 20 carriers, including Progressive, Nationwide, Auto-Owners, and Liberty Mutual, and can even place your auto with one carrier and your home with another when that serves you best. A captive agent cannot do that.
What does Absolute Insurance believe?
We believe coverage should protect you when it matters, not just look cheap on paper. The details of a policy decide whether a claim is covered, so our agents ask the intricate questions and build a plan around your life. Vice president Dan Bell describes the work as solving problems and closing gaps before they become claims.
How has Absolute Insurance grown?
Absolute grew the way good agencies do, by referrals. As clients move to other states or buy a second or third home, they keep Absolute as their agent, which is why the agency is now licensed in 25 states. Today Absolute holds 210-plus five-star Google reviews at a 4.95 out of 5 average, and Jeff and Dan share what they have learned on the agency's Fully Covered podcast.
