The Village of Minooka is a charming community founded in 1869 along the route of the Rock Island Railroad. Minooka is Pottawatomie for “Good Land.” Transportation has played an important role in the development of the community.

However, residential growth is not the only growth, the commercial and industrial growth has followed the residential boom, providing necessary services, jobs, and a balanced tax base.

MCCABE INSURANCE AND REAL ESTATE GROUP

McCabe Insurance and Real Estate Group moved their office to Minooka one year ago in May 2013. Agency owner, Chris McCabe, welcomed the move from New Lenox to Minooka as she and her key employee Maggie Hargis both live in Channahon. After having been in New Lenox for 4 years, moving her office to Minooka was like coming full circle and she felt as if she was “home”. Chris & Maggie consider themselves fortunate to be able to work so close to home and help the residents and friends in the Chanooka area.

Chris McCabe, a lifelong resident of Will County has been a Realtor since 1991. When the Real Estate market crashed in 2008 she, like many others affected by the down turn of the Real Estate market, found she had to reinvent herself. Chris decided to become an Insurance Agent and was fortunate to open her own Insurance Agency in 2009 in New Lenox. The upswing in the Real Estate market motivated Chris to upgrade her Real Estate license and open her own Real Estate office. Chris is now the Managing Broker and owner of McCabe Real Estate Group.

McCabe Insurance has a fully licensed staff and can offer you the luxury of shopping around for your Insurance with just one phone call. As an Independent Insurance Broker, McCabe Insurance has several top carriers such as Pekin, Travelers, Hartford, AAA, SafeCo, MetLife, Progressive and more. Representing several carriers allows you the ability to easily shop for the best coverage at the best price. In addition to your basic Home, Auto, Life , Commercial General Liability and Workers Comp, McCabe Insurance can help you with all of your Specialty Market coverages such as vacant properties, Professional Liability and E & O, Trucking, Restaurants, Home Owners Associations, Manufacturers, Contractors and much more. If you need it insured, McCabe Insurance has a carrier for you. It is important to review your insurance annually. You will feel comfortable bringing your policies to McCabe Insurance for review and consultation.
