About NRG · Independent Seattle brokerage

Independent thinkers, trusted advisors.

We're for the fringes, the outsiders, and the innovators, the people the mainstream institutions don't serve well. We negotiate hard with our insurance companies, read the fine print, and explain it all in plain English.
