Appalachian Underwriters, Inc. is pleased to announce the purchase of the policy renewal rights for Admitted Markel American and Aegis Security Policies in South Carolina from Insurit & Associates Inc.

Established in 2012, Insurit & Associates, formerly located in West Columbia, South Carolina, was an insurance provider for personal lines insurance.

This purchase now allows AUI to service 80 more insurance agencies across South Carolina.

“We have been looking for ways to connect with more South Carolina agents,” said Zach Blaetz, AUI Mid Atlantic Regional Manager. “Dennis Nipper (former President of Insurit & Associates) and his team have done an excellent job of helping the transition go as smooth as possible.”

Along with the acquisition of their homeowners book, AUI is also welcoming Insurit & Associates’ underwriter, Marisa Zimmer, to the personal lines team. She joins with 8 years in the industry and will be servicing personal lines policies remotely in South Carolina.
