Pappazi Insurance Agency is a women-owned independent brokerage in San Carlos that has written personal-lines coverage for San Diego households from Suite J at 8312 Lake Murray Boulevard since 1995. Owner Staci Marie Pappazi built the agency as an independent operation representing multiple carriers — including Liberty Mutual and Progressive — which lets the office quote across company lines rather than binding to a single insurer's rate table. The book covers auto, homeowners, renters, condo, landlord-protection, motorcycle, boat and watercraft, RV, umbrella, earthquake, flood, small-business, and drone policies, with earthquake and flood endorsements addressing the coverage gaps that standard homeowners policies exclude in the 92119 ZIP. The Lake Murray Boulevard office sits within San Carlos's residential core, a half-mile south of Lake Murray and the Cowles Mountain trailhead, inside the same financial-services corridor where Clutinger Williams and Verhoye handles investment planning for Del Cerro and San Carlos households. Pappazi has developed particular depth in wildfire-risk placements, navigating California's FAIR Plan and surplus-lines markets for San Carlos and Del Cerro homeowners who face non-renewal notices from standard carriers due to brush-exposure proximity near Cowles Mountain and Mission Trails Regional Park. The agency holds a BBB A+ accreditation dating to 2005 and identifies as LGBTQ+ inclusive. San Carlos homebuyers working with agents at Sam Shuck - Golden Empire Realty coordinate homeowners-insurance binding through Pappazi's office as part of the escrow-closing timeline. The three-agent team runs annual policy reviews with a coverage-education focus, walking clients through deductible structures, liability-limit stacking, and umbrella triggers across their full portfolio of auto, home, and recreational-vehicle policies.
