Teague Insurance Agency Inc. holds CA license #0525512 from its Alvarado Road office in La Mesa's Grossmont area, founded in 1954 and now one of the largest independent agencies in San Diego County. Collision-and-comprehensive auto policies written here coordinate claims directly with direct-repair shops including Caliber Collision, processing appraisals and repair authorizations through carriers like Mercury, Progressive, and Safeco. Walter Johnston purchased the agency from founder John Teague in 1981, and the firm now operates under the leadership of the Johnston family's second generation. The commercial book covers construction, inland marine, ocean marine, oil-and-gas, surety bonds, and professional-liability lines — products placed through carrier partners including Travelers and Hagerty for classic-vehicle agreed-value policies. Homeowner policies written here support La Mesa homes for sale transactions, with policy binding coordinated alongside agents such as Andrea Flint-Gogek, REALTOR® - Tranquility Real Estate Services. The agency's highest-complexity work includes layered commercial-package policies with ocean-marine cargo endorsements, USFHP surety instruments, and umbrella stacking across multiple underlying auto, property, and professional-liability lines.
