  • 🌿 Hello June – Halfway Through the Year! As we reach the middle of the year, it’s a great time to pause and revisit your insurance coverage to make sure everything still aligns with your current needs and goals.

    📊 A Mid-Year Insurance Review Life changes throughout the year—new purchases, moves, or changes in routine can all impact your coverage needs. A quick review can help ensure your policies remain up to date.

    🚗 Seasonal Driving Changes With summer activities increasing, many households find their driving habits shift. Reviewing your auto coverage now can help you stay aligned with those changes.

    🏡 Home Updates & Protection If you’ve started or are completing home projects this summer, checking in on your property coverage is a simple step to stay prepared.

    📞 Your Local Resource If you’d like to connect for a quick review or have questions, I’m here to help whenever you need.

My name is Ernest Soto, and I am the proud owner of the State Farm Agency located at 129 Woodstock Ave. in Rutland, VT. Since October 1998, I’ve had the privilege of serving the communities of Rutland, Windsor, Bennington, Addison counties, and all of Vermont. I like to think of our office as the premier insurance agency in Rutland, dedicated to providing exceptional service and personalized insurance.

Becoming a State Farm Agent is not simply a business opportunity—it’s a role that must be earned and requires a genuine passion for helping others. I began my career with State Farm in 1992, working in the claims department until I became an agent. This October marks my 28th anniversary as a State Farm Agent. I’ve been happily married to my wonderful wife Michele for 39 years, and together we have one child.

Our agency offers a full range of personal and business insurance. We make insurance quotes easy, convenient, and aligned to your unique needs. Great service starts with getting to know you, and our team is committed to understanding your goals and helping you make informed decisions about your insurance coverage.

We provide free quotes for auto, motorcycle, and snowmobile insurance, including discounts for low mileage and safe drivers. Our customers love the Drive Safe & Save program. State Farm also offers comprehensive homeowners, renters, condo, and rental property insurance. We provide free life insurance quotes to help protect those who matter most to you. As a small business owner myself, I understand the needs of local businesses and contractors, and we offer a variety of commercial insurance.

If you value working with local professionals and want the advantages of a nationally recognized company—including 24-hour access by phone, web, smartphone app, texting, and video conferencing—look no further. We’re here for you. We currently prefer scheduled appointments within our office.

Thank you for considering our agency. We look forward to serving you and helping you protect what matters most.
