SIHLE INSURANCE GROUPInternational Investors & Insurance

Provided by your friends at Sihle Insurance Group

1021 Douglas Ave | Altamonte Springs, FL 32714 | [email protected] | Hotline: 407-869-0962

Sihle Insurance Group can write insurance for international investors for Homeowners and Auto Insurance.

� Rental home- Sihle Insurance Group can write a short term (less than 6 months) or long term rental (over 6 months). A long term rental is generally less expensive and will have more carriers.

� Seasonal home – Sihle Insurance Group can write a seasonal home which is 0-3 months occupancy a year and vacant the rest of the year.

� Secondary home – Sihle Insurance Group can write a secondary home which is 3-6 months occupancy a year and vacant the rest of the year.

� ****For Seasonal and Secondary homes, most carriers will require a mandatory alarm system or be in a gated or guarded community.

� Sihle Insurance Group has 8-10 Homeowners Insurance carriers available for international investors out of our 30+ carriers and they don’t need a Social Security number.

� International investors don’t need a United States Driver’s License number in order to obtain auto insurance; they only need their current passport and DL# from their country.

� Rates tend to be a little higher due for international investors having no prior/current insurance in the US. However, after they have a 6 month to 1 year driving history in the US, Sihle can reshop the carriers and the rates will likely decrease.

� International investors can get a discount on their auto insurance called the Continuous Coverage Discount in which they may be eligible for discounts after 6 months to a year of safe driving and good history.

LET’S GET NOTICED! We have recently concluded our Agent Bios & Photos campaign! When we started our region-wide effort to get 100% of our EXIT Associates to participate, we had 51% with photos and only 21% of you had bios. Now, we are thrilled to report that 76% have photos and 57% have bios! That’s a great increase, and we need to keep going.

Congratulations and thank you to all who participated! We encourage all EXIT Florida offices to actively incorporate this into your new agent process. Thank you!

ST. JUDE WALK/RUN TO END CHILDHOOD CANCERPlease Join Our Team: EXIT Out Cancer

A message from EXIT Realty Florida’s Regional Accounts Manager, Annette Tuttle

St. Jude Children’s Hospital holds a special place in my heart; my grandniece, Chloe Tuttle, is a patient there.

On February 15, 2012, my nephew Alex and his wife Lynda gave us beautiful twin baby girls, Hanna and Chloe. On Friday, April 12, 2013 little Chloe (pictured here with her mom Lynda) was diagnosed with Ependymoma, an extremely aggressive form of brain cancer - located on her brain stem. On April 15th Chloe underwent invasive surgery in an effort to remove the deadly tumor. Chloe also had a port inserted for future medications and a G-Tube for feedings, to avoid having to continually insert IV’s into her tiny arms. Sadly, they were unsuccessful in removing the entire tumor. The decision was then made to try and relocate Chloe to St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Memphis, TN. We received the good news on Wednesday, April 16th that St. Jude had accepted Chloe’s case – the only caveat being Chloe had to arrive in Memphis that Friday. Alex, Lynda, Hanna and Chloe quickly packed up their car in Ft. Lauderdale and drove straight up to Memphis. Many months of treatment, surgeries and prayers followed.

I am happy to report today, that after many additional months of therapy to re-teach Chloe how to swallow, she can now eat on her own! Her G-tube and port have been removed – (her voice is a little raspy compared to Hanna’s) and it is such a joy to see her being a “normal” little girl - playing, running, swimming, ballet, cheerleading; as I said, just being a normal little girl. Chloe is now a resounding 4 years old and travels back to St. Jude once every 3 months for evaluation. While we know they were unable to remove the entire tumor, since December 2013, she has remained stable and there has not been any new growth on the tumor. Does St. Jude rock or what!!

I would like to personally invite all of my extended EXIT family to join our team, EXIT Out Cancer, on Saturday, September 24th at John Prince Park in Lake Worth for a fun day of walking, running or just cheering to help support the amazing life-saving work of St. Jude Children’s Hospital.

Everyone needs to have access to your website, no matter their physical ability. Because your site is a place of public accommodation, it’s important as a broker that you ensure it is ADA accessible.Below are six tactics you can implement today to create an accessible website. This is not a comprehensive list, but rather a source to help you get started changing common features:

1. Clean font types.Crisp and clean fonts are important for screen readers — soft-ware programs that use a voice synthesizer or braille display to help blind or visually impaired users read text on the web. This is the foundation of creating an ADA-accessible platform for your consumers to access. Here is a great summary of what clean and clear text formatting should resemble. When the text is in a font that a screen reader can clearly scroll through, your site will be off to a good start for ADA requirements.

Resources to help you create an accessible site:• U.S. Department of Health & Human Services: Building and Managing Websites• The A11Y Project• Mobile Accessibility Checklist• Adobe: Making Your Website Design Accessible• Job Accommodation Network• University of Washington:Creating Accessible Videos

2. High-contrast themes.Removing the grayscale on your site also assists those who are visually impaired. Offering high contrast helps visually impaired people navigate through the design. You can see the tools on the right hand side of my Boulder real estate website that adjust the contrast according to the viewer’s needs.

3. “Skip to main content” link.For web users who cannot use a mouse, there’s a function called “skip navigation” or “skip to main content” that can be added to a site. Essentially, it lets a person navigating a website with a keyboard skip over all the links in a site’s navigation menu. It’s as simple as adding a link to this feature at the top of your navigation.

You may need to talk to your web manager about implementing it.

4. Alt text and HTML headings.Alt text (alternative text) is an image description that can be read by screen readers to describe an image to the visually impaired. HTML headings use text instead of images or CSS so that screen readers can pick them up.

5. Video closed captioning.If video content is an important component of your marketing, you’ll want to assist deaf and hard-of-hearing web users by including closed captioning with your video content. Here is an example of the value of captions, while making it fun and practical.

6. Audio descriptions.Videos with audio descriptions help blind and visually impaired users visualize videos and images to get a more complete picture. Below is an example of video using audio descriptions.If you’re operating a WordPress site, there are many accessibility plugins available. Here are several I’ve found helpful to boost page usability for everyone.

6 WAYS TO HELP EVERYONE ACCESS YOUR WEBSITE

Your website is an integral part of your clients’ homebuying and homeselling experience.

Make sure it’s accessible to all.
