Say hello to the newest member of our team, Eli!

Please help us in welcoming our new team member, Eli Santelman! 🥳

Eli recently graduated from Bethel University with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications and a minor in Business. As our unlicensed sales assistant, he is eager to begin his journey in finance.

Hutchinson is like a second home to Eli, because he grew up making many fun memories in the area with his grandparents, cousins and other extended family.

Not only has Eli joined the Zephyrus family full-time, but he's actually already family! As Tim's nephew, we couldn't be more excited to have him on board.

"You don't need renters insurance."

𝗙𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗲!

Read the witness from one of our team members who experienced the importance of having renters insurance below. ⤵️

I had just moved into my first apartment after college and made the decision to get renter’s insurance. I think it was $9/mo.
Two months into living there, around midnight one night, the person in the apartment next to mine was smoking on their balcony. Instead of putting it out, they just flicked it into the corner. The fire started on their balcony and traveled through the ceiling to my place and throughout the rest of the floor. The fire had spread enough that I had to be rescued from my balcony by the fire department.
Afterwards, things that could be salvaged were all packed up by a smoke remediation company and sent for cleaning, including furniture, dishes, etc. All of my clothes were packed up and taken to be dry cleaned. I was put up in an extended stay hotel for almost 3 months while my apartment was repaired. The cost of all of this was covered by my insurance. I found out later that I was the only one affected by the fire that had insurance. The other tenants had to cover the cost of cleaning and staying other places themselves.

Last week we closed our office for the day.

We believe it is important to take the time to celebrate the hard work that has been accomplished and the successes of fellow team members.

And that is exactly what we did.

It was fun to celebrate together at Crow River Winery!
