Thank you for visiting our Web site. If you are a Goodville policyholder or agent I trust you have discovered the features for transacting business with us on the Internet. Early this year we launched a new online rating and quoting system that makes it very easy for agents to issue auto, home and commercial policies.

If you are not a policyholder, I invite you to contact one of our agents who will be glad to help you evaluate your insurance needs and an affordable way to meet them. As a mutual company our profits are reinvested in the company for the benefit of policyholders, not paid to outside shareholders.

We are pleased that both our income and our Policyholders’ Surplus have grown substantially in the past six years. Our equity gives us capacity to pay claims, to grow and to keep rates affordable. Our 2007 Report to Policyholders shows the positive underwriting results of the last year.

Goodville’s business objectives are to keep our products competitive and our prices stable, avoiding drastic rate changes that are all too common in our industry. Such stability nurtures long-term relationships with policyholders and agents, which is positive for everyone.

It is our mission to help policyholders recover from loss and we feel satisfaction when we are part of restoring well-being to people whose lives have been disrupted. We also contribute a portion of our profits to organizations dedicated to improving our communities and the world through education, economic development and disaster response programs. Together we can help restore peace and justice to our world.

I would be delighted to hear from you on how our competitive products are helping provide you peace of mind, or to tell us how we can do even better. Thank you for giving us and our independent professional hometown insurance agents the opportunity to serve you.
