Our Approach

Our inspections are carried out by seasoned professionals who will positively represent your brand. Furthermore, we take seriously our mission to be your “eyes and ears” in the field. Every underwriter deserves more than the bare minimum amount of information on every risk they write so they can make an informed decision.  My passion for “insuring your success” stems from my own observations serving as a claims adjuster for 16 years.  All to often, I’ve serviced claims and alerted underwriters to risk deficiencies that weren’t properly uncovered up front and it became apparent that there was an unmet need in the industry. An underwriter deserves more than someone that’s going through the motions. They deserve a comprehensive set of factual observations that help them form an accurate picture of the physical property. Underlying exposures should be fully vetted and exposed to the daylight. This serves as Upper Midwest’s primary objective.

 

Any inspection should provide the following:

 

1.     An improved understanding of the risk.

2.     A verification of insurance to value.

3.     A summary of adverse exposures

4.     An underwriting recommendation supported by documentation

 

All of the above is achieved in an ethical and expedient manner that reflects positively on the insurance carrier’s image and brand. The trust that insurance carriers bestow upon Upper Midwest Inspections is paid back in the form of actionable intelligence that results in tangible underwriting profits over time. Want to take your physical inspections to the next level? Scale your operations by letting Upper Midwest be the extension of your staff that you need to reach a new level of excellence.

Our Story

I founded Upper Midwest Inspections with a vision of bringing a new level of service and expertise to insurance carriers.  While inspections have traditionally served as a necessary cost of doing business, Upper Midwest prides itself in being a value add. Rarely do insurance carriers get the opportunity physically touch their customers in a meaningful way.
