Insurance for Life in Bay County

Coverage Built for the Way Panama City Lives

Panama City has rebuilt, grown and changed a lot since Hurricane Michael in 2018. New neighborhoods in Lynn Haven and Southport, beach condos in Panama City Beach, historic homes in St. Andrews and small businesses downtown all need coverage that fits how you actually live. We help Bay County families sort through their options so they’re not paying for coverage they don’t need, or missing coverage they do.

Our Panama City team looks at the whole picture: wind and hurricane deductibles, flood coverage (which a standard homeowners policy never includes), replacement cost for your home, and liability protection for your boat, golf cart and rental properties. We also look for savings, like Florida wind-mitigation credits, bundling home and auto, and comparing carriers at every renewal.

Whether you just moved to the area, own a condo on the beach, or run a business in town, we’ll build a plan around your life on the Gulf Coast. Families planning for the future can also meet with Eve Fadden, “The Life Lady,” about life insurance.

Lindsey is an amazing agent. She found a policy that saved us about $1000 on homeowner’s insurance. She made the entire process quick and painless. Excellent communication with speedy responses. We appreciate you!

I was referred to Daffin Insurance by my realtor when I moved to Florida. Daffin has been nothing but helpful in educating me on the ins/outs of insurance in Florida. I have especially found Shannon Purple to be an excellent resource and advocate!

My experience with Sheena at Daffin Insurance was amazing. As a second year business owner she got me exactly what I needed for General Liability and Business Auto Insurance. She gave all the options for me to make the best decision.

Panama City Insurance FAQs

Questions We Hear
Every Week

Where is your Panama City office?
We’re downtown at 755 Harrison Avenue, Panama City, FL 32401. We’re open Monday through Thursday 8:30am–5:00pm and Friday 8:30am–4:00pm. Call us at (850) 769-8183.
Do you insure condos and homes in Panama City Beach?
Yes. We help owners across Bay County, including Panama City Beach, compare home, condo, wind and flood options from multiple carriers. See condo coverage.
Do I need flood insurance in Panama City?
If your home has a federally backed mortgage and sits in a high-risk flood zone (zones beginning with A or V), your lender will require it. Even outside those zones, a standard homeowners policy never covers flood, and a large share of flood claims nationwide come from outside high-risk zones. Learn about flood insurance.
How can I lower my home insurance premium in Bay County?
Common ways include a wind-mitigation inspection (Florida insurers must offer credits for qualifying storm-resistant features), bundling home and auto, choosing a higher deductible, and comparing carriers at renewal. Because we’re independent, we can shop your policy for you.
Can you insure my business in Panama City?
Yes. We write business owner’s policies, general liability, commercial property, commercial auto and workers’ comp for Bay County businesses. See business insurance.
Do I have to come into the office?
No. You’re always welcome to stop by, but we can also handle everything by phone, email or our online quote form.
