Serving Central North Carolina since 2002

About Jason Watkins Agency

A local insurance agency built one relationship at a time—and backed today by five licensed professionals with 86 years of combined experience.

From zero customers to an established Central North Carolina agency

Jason Watkins opened his insurance agency in Sanford on October 1, 2002, at age 26. It was a true scratch agency: the business began with no existing customers.

Jason grew up in Chatham County and graduated from Chatham Central High School in 1994. His mother-in-law and brother-in-law were both insurance agents, and their encouragement helped inspire him to open an agency of his own.

During Jason's first year, he received Rookie of the Year recognition in the Southeast region. The agency has since earned multiple company awards and achieved Elite Agency status.

More than two decades later, Jason Watkins Agency has grown into an established insurance agency serving individuals, families, property owners and businesses throughout Sanford, Pittsboro, Lee County, Chatham County, Moore County and surrounding Central North Carolina communities.

Pittsboro and Chatham County have experienced significant growth over the years, and we are proud to serve many customers throughout the area Jason has called home since childhood. We also serve a substantial number of customers in neighboring Moore County, as well as customers throughout Harnett and Wake Counties and across North Carolina.

Our focus has remained the same since 2002

While we are proud of our growth and recognition, our purpose is still helping customers understand their insurance and make informed decisions about protecting what matters to them.

Insurance is not simply about finding a price. Coverage limits, deductibles, endorsements, discounts, replacement costs and liability protection can make a significant difference when a loss occurs. We examine the risks a customer faces and the assets they are trying to protect, then help explain coverage options that may be appropriate for their situation.

Our goal is not simply to sell a policy. It is to help customers understand their risks, recognize potential gaps in their insurance protection and make informed coverage decisions.

Insurance is personal. We believe your agency should be too.

Technology has made it easier than ever to obtain an insurance quote, but a price on a screen does not always tell you whether you are properly protected. Our team can review liability limits, compare deductibles, discuss replacement cost, identify available discounts and evaluate how different policies work together to protect your assets.

When you have a question, you also have an experienced local agency team you can contact. This is more than where we do business. Central North Carolina is home.
