Agency Information

The first Steve Craft Agency was opened in 2005 at 6300 Sashabaw Road in Clarkston, Michigan. Steve started this agency as what is known as a “scratch agency.” There was  no existing agency or group of clients was not purchased; Steve and his staff of one set out to gather up new clients and build an agency from the ground up. Within 60 days the agency earned its first recognition award for selling Allstate financial products and in the years since many  have followed.

In 2008,  the second agency was opened in Grand Blanc, Michigan. This agency is known as the Grand Blanc Agency and was opened with the help of Dena Barnhart. Dena remains an integral part of the agency and currently has the dual roles of sales producer and sales manager for all three agencies.

In 2009, the Steve Craft Agency acquired the Stan Evans Agency. Stan had been a very well respected and longtime Allstate agent. Many of Stan’s clients are still with the Steve Craft Agency today. In 2011 The Grand Blanc Agency acquired longtime Allstate agent Dan Osentowski. Many of Dan’s clients call The Grand Blanc Agency home for all their insurance needs.

Finally, in 2011 the third agency was opened, also in Clarkston, Michigan. With the opening of that agency, Steve was joined by his oldest son, Marcus Craft. Marcus is currently a sales producer and agency manager at the North Oakland Agency.

Currently all three agencies employ fifteen people with 5 of the staff members dedicated to servicing over 3,500 clients. Our agency goal is to help our client base understand all aspects of their insurance coverages, and, after the sale, make sure that each and every client is 100% satisfied.

Under the leadership of Steve Craft, and the help of an outstanding customer-minded staff, this Allstate Agency has grown to one of the largest in Michigan and, in fact, one of the largest in the entire Allstate North Central Region including Ohio and Indiana.

Our Agency goal is simple. We want you to be completely satisfied with our agency, and we want to earn your support in recommending our agency to your friends and family. You are the reason our agency exists, and we thank you!
