After years in the captive agency world, where they were limited to offering only what the company allowed, Karen and Scott stepped out on their own to give clients real choices with real value.<\/p>\n<p>Now, nearly a decade later, they\u2019ve expanded into Babcock Ranch, a community they\u2019ve watched grow from an ambitious concept into one of Florida\u2019s most vibrant and forward-thinking towns.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve had our eye on Babcock Ranch since day one,\u201d said co-founder Karen Culbertson. \u201cIt\u2019s the kind of community that aligns perfectly with who we are&#8230; innovative, future-focused, and built around real relationships.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leading the new Babcock office is Managing Partner Ruth Villanueva, a seasoned insurance professional with over 15 years of experience. Ruth previously managed one of the largest Allstate agencies in the country and brings a wealth of knowledge to her new independent role. Like Karen and Scott, Ruth also transitioned from the captive agency model, seeking the freedom to offer what\u2019s actually best for her clients, not just what\u2019s on the shelf.<\/p>\n<p>Ruth is currently meeting with clients at The Hatchery, Babcock Ranch\u2019s flexible co-working and innovation space, while construction continues on the new permanent office located on B Street, just off Lake Babcock Drive. It will be across from Slater\u2019s and around the corner from Curry Creek Outfitters and the Town Center. The new location is expected to open later this year.<\/p>\n<p>Even before putting up a sign, Way Better Insurance has already started protecting homes, autos, golf carts, and boats for Babcock residents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis community is built around being intentional&#8230; how you live, how you travel, even how you power your home,\u201d said Ruth. \u201cWe take the same approach to insurance. It should be tailored, not templated. We\u2019re here to help you protect the life you\u2019ve built, your way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To get a quote or schedule a consultation with Ruth, call (239) 456-4540 or visit <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.waybetterinsurance.com\/\">www.waybetterinsurance.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>About Way Better Insurance<br \/>Way Better Insurance is an independent insurance agency serving Florida residents since 2016.
