Mortgage Brokers: Build Reliable Revenue Streams
Open A Successful Insurance
Branch That’s Recession-Proof
A low-risk, high-reward small business free from fluctuating interest rates. All the tools you need for success! Not a franchise, no expensive franchise fees.
Why Open a Compass Insurance Branch?
Avoid the Tough Times Mortgage Brokers Face
Inflation. Rising interest rates. Uncertain economic outlook. All of which results in a cool housing market. All of which makes it tough times for mortgage brokers.
Mortgages are feast or famine. Even in good times, mortgages are seasonal. Auto and property insurance is year-round.
A Compass insurance branch represents an opportunity to develop a stable small business resistant to the uncertainties of the home loans business.
It’s not a franchise. But you get all the benefits of a franchise without the pain points. This is a great way to add additional revenue to a business you’ve already built. Plus, it’s a much simpler process to sell insurance than it is to write mortgages. Here are just a few of the benefits we know you’ll love.
No Experience Required
No Costly Franchise Fees
Easy To Scale Your Business
Higher Commissions
Marketing & Sales Support
Home Office Services Policies
No more scrambling to research rates, no mounds of paperwork processing, no depending on market uncertainties for your fees. Be your own boss and help people better protect themselves and their families.

Compass has 20+ insurance carriers to choose from in 20+ states for home and auto (the blue states on the map below). Focus on your clients while we help you grow your business.

Low Startup Costs
Low startup costs mean more money stays in your pocket. You won’t need to mortgage your life away to get started and you’ll earn profits much faster than with a franchise opportunity.

Stop Worrying About the Feds!
Drive Your Own Success!
Build success that isn’t tied to market uncertainties. Whether home prices are rising or declining, whether interest rates are up or down, people need insurance and the peace of mind that their families and properties are protected.
Here’s an extra bonus: Selling insurance is a great way to generate leads for your mortgage broker business! Because people who buy insurance also buy homes. And know other people looking to buy homes.
No Insurance Experience? No Worries!
Selling home and auto insurance is nothing like writing a mortgage: it’s so much easier! You already know your business inside and out. Adding home and auto insurance provides a little extra to grow your business without a lot of extra work.
We provide a business opportunity without the learning curve. You get everything you need to start a Compass branch. You just need to get started.
Get repeat customers, not just one-time deals! You’re no longer tied to one kind of product. From home insurance to auto insurance, there are a range of opportunities to sell a range of products and grow your business how you want.
A Carrier for Every Need and Situation
And More!
What Our Insurance Branch Owners Are Saying
Insurance is a Multibillion-Dollar Industry
Insurance is a multi-billion dollar industry in the US. When you become a part of the Compass Insurance family , you are opening the door into this industry and can tap into the river of wealth it provides.
In the US, 79% of adults purchase auto insurance. It is a service the majority of the population needs. The stability that the insurance industry has allows you to plan for the long term and watch your business grow steadily.
Not only is insurance something everyone needs, but it’s also recession-proof. Since it’s a necessity, the stock market doesn’t impact the insurance industry in a negative way. Weather, unemployment, housing prices, and shipping rates have no effect. You can sleep well at night knowing there will always be customers.
In 2019, net premiums for the insurance industry totaled $1.32 trillion in the US. There is a huge amount of money spent on insurance annually. Being a part of a franchise-style business gets you in the front door. You get a leg up with expert advice and a tried and tested business formula to help you start making money from day one.
