About Us:
Heritage Insurance Group and Heritage Insurance & Real Estate are the result of four trusted agencies coming together under one name to better serve the communities of Coon Rapids, Jefferson, and Audubon. By uniting our resources and expertise, we continue our mission of protecting people’s assets and providing exceptional insurance and real estate services across West Central Iowa.
Heritage Insurance & Real Estate has a long history of service and evolution. Founded before World War II by Dennis Brannan and Dale Carpenter, the agency remained operational during their military service, thanks to their wives, Pearl and Adelade.
In 1967, Bruce Annear took over, incorporating the Don Anderson Agency. The business changed hands again in 1989 and was purchased in 1991 by J. Wiltsie Cretsinger and Fred Dolezal, who renamed it Coon Rapids Insurance & Real Estate. By 2006, Cretsinger became the sole owner, expanding into Audubon and acquiring Craig and Stacy MacDonald’s Insurance Agency in Jefferson.
As part of continued growth, Cretsinger brought in Jeremy Greiner, now Vice President, ensuring Heritage Insurance remains a trusted partner for generations to come.
For generations, our agency has been a trusted partner for individuals, families, and businesses seeking comprehensive insurance and real estate solutions. With a deep understanding of our clients’ needs and a firm commitment to their financial security, we remain dedicated to serving West Central Iowa with integrity and professionalism.
As an independent insurance firm, we partner with a wide range of trusted and reputable carriers, giving you the flexibility to choose the best coverage for your needs.
Our experienced insurance advisors guide you every step of the way, serving as your trusted advocate from choosing the right coverage to filing a claim.
Our dedicated insurance advisors are passionate about protecting what matters most to you—both in business and life. We prioritize your needs and treat you like family.
