Independent Insurance Agent Serving Abingdon, VA and Washington County
If you're looking for an insurance agent near Abingdon who actually picks up the phone, you've found one. At the Mark Britt Agency, we work with families, farm owners, and small businesses across Washington County and the surrounding Virginia Highlands — bringing genuine multi-carrier access and a relationship-first approach that the big direct writers simply can't match.
Coverage Built for Life in Washington County
We know this part of Virginia. The mix of rural land, mountain terrain, working farms, and small-town businesses here calls for an agent who understands what you actually own — not one who runs through a checklist and emails you a PDF. We represent carriers including Progressive, Travelers, National General, and Hallmark, which means we can shop your coverage and find the right fit rather than forcing you into whatever one company offers.
Whether you're insuring a home off Route 11, a farm operation out toward Glade Spring, or a small business on Main Street in Abingdon, we'll put together coverage that reflects your real situation.
Washington County homes — especially older properties and those on larger rural lots — often need more nuanced coverage than a standard homeowners policy provides. We make sure your dwelling limits are accurate, your outbuildings are covered, and your policy reflects what it would actually cost to rebuild, not just what the house is worth on paper.
Home and Property Insurance in Abingdon
If you're running livestock, storing equipment, or managing land that does double duty as home and operation, a standard homeowners policy won't cut it. We specialize in farm and rural property insurance for exactly this kind of situation — coverage for barns, outbuildings, equipment, and animals that protects the whole picture.
Farm and Rural Property Coverage
We cover personal auto for individuals and families across Abingdon and Washington County, and we write commercial coverage for contractors, tradespeople, and small business owners who need general liability, commercial auto, or a business owner's policy. One agent, one relationship, all of it handled.

Why Abingdon Clients Choose an Independent Agent
Working with an independent agent means you're not locked into one company's products. We can compare rates and coverage terms across multiple carriers, advocate for you at claim time, and adjust your policies as your life changes — without starting over from scratch every time. That's the difference between having an agent and having a policy number.
When you call the Mark Britt Agency, you reach us. Not a regional call center. Not a chatbot. We're a short drive from Abingdon, and we're available when you need to talk something through.
