Insurance, real estate, and property management from a family business that's been doing right by Western North Carolina for over a century. When you call, you talk to people who know the place — and know you.
Whether you need a policy that other agencies turn down, a rental managed while you're out of state, or a partner to buy or sell a home in the Swannanoa Valley — we've been doing all three under one roof since 1973.
Home, auto, business, life — including hard-to-place policies that big-name agencies won't touch. We work with carriers who stand behind difficult coverage.

"If someone has a need, we try to take care of it."
That motto isn't marketing copy. It's how four generations of Hudsons have done business in Black Mountain. Come by the office on Cherry Street and we'll show you what that looks like.
