About
Dan Wentz
The person behind the programs on this site.
ACREInsure is the commercial real estate practice of Dan Wentz, a risk consultant at USI Insurance Services in Birmingham. Dan works with owners, managers, and developers of commercial real estate and hotels, building insurance programs for accounts with $50,000 and up in annual premium.
Dan came up on the wholesale side of the business: nine years at CRC Group and two at CAC Group, marketing and placing the risk standard agents send out when they can't write it themselves. So the E&S and specialty capacity this site keeps mentioning isn't an abstraction. It's a set of working relationships.
Before insurance, he spent 14 years in radio, seven of them at iHeartMedia. Which is why you'll get your renewal explained in plain English instead of a 40-page proposal nobody reads.
He writes on commercial insurance for the Alabama Center for Real Estate (ACRE) at the University of Alabama and is a member of the ACRE 100 Leadership Council.
