"I would recommend PPCLOAN to anyone. It has been a pleasure working with the staff at PPCLOAN. They know and understand our business and were very responsive to my needs. In today's environment, it's all about building good working relationships and PPCLOAN does an excellent job. Everything went flawlessly with the service and conditions as promised."

Greetings!

The first half of 2010 saw an increased number of outside buyers purchasing Allstate agencies as Allstate moved to replace under-performing agents. This resulted in a demand for financing which PPCLOAN has been able to meet. Year-to-date, PPCLOAN has funded roughly 70 Allstate transactions. Lending to outside buyers has accounted for roughly 60% of the total, with only 1 in every 3 being required to put cash down, thus leaving them with much needed capital to begin their new venture.

Over the years, PPCLOAN has been able to adapt to changes in Allstate and provide financing solutions that help create successful agents. We hope you continue to utilize our resources to your agents' advantage.

The Driving Factors of Allstate Agency Value NEW

"It is always important for agency owners, especially those nearing the eventual sale of their agencies, to take care in keeping the performance of their agency at top level."

AAVI Sneak Peak! Agency Values Stabilize

The 2nd Quarter Allstate Agency Value Index confirms what the 1st Quarter hinted- Allstate agency values have in fact stabilized. This stabilization, resulting from the static demand and necessity of the underlying product, should elicit at least two responses in the Allstate marketplace. First, existing Allstate owners can take pride in their Agency, as the value of what they have labored to build has stabilized at a level significantly higher than most small businesses. Second, qualified buyers can purchase an Allstate agency fairly confident that there will be no large swings in the value of the agency. An additional consideration is the fact that we may be at a price floor, thus making it an ideal time to purchase an agency.
