About Us

Background/History

Beach Insurance and Associates was founded in 1978 by John Marr. John started the company as a scratch company for Nationwide Insurance, selling and servicing one policy at a time. For thirty years, he and his wife Ginger built a trustworthy name in the community for providing personable, reliable advice for one’s insurance needs.

January 2008, Chance and Amy purchased the rights to service the policyholders from Nationwide and John. They branded the name Marr-Perry Agency as a tribute to John and Ginger and the collaboration they were forming. For a year, John served as mentor to Chance and consultant to several clients. Then in January 2009, Chance rebranded the agency to Beach Insurance & Financial Services to more accurately reflect the products and services offered. While this name alludes to the multitude of different products, it didn’t accurately identify the experience and relationships that were being forged with customers. Now, January of 2017 the agency name officially changes again to Beach Insurance & Associates to reflect the team of licensed professionals and experience along with the multiple product solutions unique to the agency.

Even though Nationwide continues to be our flagship carrier, today we represent multiple companies with multiple product lines.
