Another insurance resource that "gets coworking" is Jeff DiCenzo, of Hylant Group <http://www.hylant.com/> in Ann Arbor. Jeff's number is 734-741-0044. We went through a couple of agents before we found Jeff, but he's been great for us. I don't know if he only works with people in Michigan or can work with people outside the state.
