You might want to take a look at Countrywide Credit (CCR). Most of their business is in mortgages, but they also provide insurance. I do not belive they any brokerage services. countrywide.com CCR is a holding company which, through its principal subsidiary, Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., engages primarily in the mortgage banking business, and as such originates, purchases, sells and services mortgage loans. For the three months ended 5/31/98, total revenues increased 41% to $450.3 million. Net income increased 30% to $90.8 million. Revenues reflect increased loan production volume. Net income was partially offset by increased salary and benefits expenses.

isoman, This is exactly what we should be concentrating on. One of my discussions with the company a couple weeks back was that they said they were looking for an insurance company that does property and casualty insurance. I've been researching this in depth in hopes to turn some ideas over. I have sent a few their way for review. How about we all help out as we'll be helping ourselves, too. Try to be realistic in our choices as something real big would probably be out of the question. Thanks for all the help. By the way, I was able to snatch a bunch up at .039 and .042 during the dip.
