As we close out 2025 and step into 2026, we want to say thank you for trusting HomeTown Insurance & Financial Services, Inc. as a local, independent resource for real insurance guidance.
This past year, we published practical articles across Medicare, health insurance, auto, home, and business coverage; all with one goal: help you make confident decisions, avoid costly gaps, and get matched with coverage from top-rated insurance companies, backed by local support.
To kick off the new year we’ve put our best 2025 resources in one place, so you can quickly find what matters most and start 2026 strong.
Local guidance. Big-carrier options. Coverage that actually fits.
2025 highlights (quick look back)
- Most-read recent resource: Having Trouble with the UnitedHealthcare UCard App? Here’s What to Know
- Medicare and scam-prevention continued to be a major focus, building on HomeTown’s recognized Medicare leadership in Colorado.
- We also leaned into practical, real-life coverage decisions for vehicles, homes, and small businesses across the Southwest.
Start the year with clarity: limits, deductibles, and the coverage gaps most people don’t see.

General liability, commercial property, and business interruption: the trio that keeps doors open.
Your 2026 coverage checklist (fast + practical)
For households
- Confirm your dwelling coverage matches today’s rebuild costs (not what you paid years ago).
- Update your home policy if you’ve added: remodels, wood stove, solar, hot tub, outbuildings, or short-term rental use.
- Know your deductibles and whether you have the right endorsements for your region.
For drivers
- Review liability limits (especially if you have savings/assets to protect).
- Confirm you have the right mix of comprehensive/collision for your vehicle’s value and how you use it.
- Ask about discounts: multi-policy, safe driving, garaging location, mileage, and bundling.
For business owners
- Make sure General Liability and Commercial Property match how you operate now (not two years ago).
- Confirm whether Business Interruption is included—and what triggers it.
- If you rely on vehicles for work, ask whether you need commercial auto.
For Medicare + health insurance
- Don’t wait for “enrollment season” to ask questions—plan changes and special enrollment situations can happen year-round.
- Be scam-aware: if something feels urgent, pushy, or “too easy,” pause and verify before sharing information.
