Inszone Insurance Services has acquired Kevin Taylor Insurance Agency, a San Antonio-based personal lines specialist operating as Taylor Insurance Agency, in a deal that broadens the national broker's presence in the Texas market.
The acquired firm will continue to trade as Taylor Insurance Agency under the Inszone umbrella, the buyer said. Financial terms were not disclosed.
Founder Kevin Taylor launched the agency in 2011 as a captive operation before converting it into a fully independent shop in January 2014.
Taylor built the business without relying on subproducers, developing the entire book himself and growing it into a personal lines operation with a sizable client base in south Texas.
The decision to sell, according to the companies, was driven by a search for back-office infrastructure capable of supporting further expansion.
"I grew this agency on my own," Taylor said, "but I knew I needed Inszone to get to the next level."
Taylor said what attracted him to the buyer was its culture, describing Inszone as "the most 'non-corporate' corporate company" he encountered during the process.
He added that interactions with chief executive Chris Walters and the wider leadership team gave him confidence in the platform, noting that the company avoids the bureaucratic drag he had seen elsewhere and keeps its focus on growth.
Taylor said he and his team are working through the early stages of integration and expect the tie-up to free capacity to focus on client service and new business production.
The Taylor transaction extends a national consolidation push by Inszone that has spanned commercial, personal and employee benefits lines.
The deal follows Inszone's May 2026 entry into Florida through the acquisition of Coastal Insurance Services and its Illinois-based affiliate Optimal Insurance Solutions, both led by Rolando Gonzalez. That transaction gave the brokerage its first office in the state.
Gonzalez, who had combined his personal lines and commercial operations under a single umbrella in May 2024, cited a rationale similar to Taylor's, saying he had reached a point where he needed a partner that could provide back-office support to scale further.
The Sacramento-based brokerage has pursued a steady cadence of regional tuck-ins focused on independent agencies with established local books that can plug into its national carrier panel and back-office platform.
Texas, with its expanding population and small-business base, has been a recurring target market within that strategy.
Walters said Taylor's track record of generating significant personal lines volume on his own stood out as a key rationale for the transaction.
"Kevin's ability to independently generate such a significant volume of personal lines business is remarkable," the chief executive said.
Walters added that Inszone will supply the strategic resources and operational support needed to take Taylor Insurance Agency into its next phase of growth.
Neither party disclosed a timeline for the full operational integration of the agency into Inszone's platform, though both indicated that preserving the Taylor Insurance Agency brand and client relationships in Texas would be central to the transition.
