Heather Thies

Welcome to the Heather Thies State Farm office, proudly serving Clermont and the greater Lake County community since 2006. In 2026, I celebrated 20 years as a State Farm agent, and I remain passionate about helping individuals, families, and business owners navigate their insurance needs with confidence. With two convenient locations in Clermont and the Horizon West area of Winter Garden, my team and I strive to make insurance approachable, professional, and welcoming while delivering personalized service rooted in the communities we call home. We are proud to offer both in-office and virtual appointments, and our pet-friendly offices help create a comfortable environment for customers and their four-legged companions alike.

We work with customers throughout Central Florida, including Minneola, Groveland, Davenport, Oakland, Montverde, Howey-in-the-Hills, Kissimmee, and surrounding communities. Our office provides support in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and we offer a wide range of Auto Insurance, Homeowners Insurance, Condo Insurance, Renters Insurance, Personal Articles Insurance, Business Insurance, Life Insurance, Health Insurance, and Pet Insurance products. Whether you're purchasing a vehicle, protecting your home, growing a business, or preparing for your family's future, we take the time to understand your goals and provide customized guidance that helps you make informed coverage decisions.

Before becoming a State Farm agent, I earned a B.S. from the University of Oklahoma and an M.Ed. from the University of Central Oklahoma. My background in education and leadership continues to shape how I serve customers and support the community. Community involvement has always been important to me, and our office actively supports local schools and nonprofits throughout the area. In addition to our involvement with the South Lake Chamber of Commerce, I am active with the Women’s Giving Alliance and serve on the board of the South Lake Community Foundation. Our offices are also Chamber members in both Clermont and Winter Garden, and we enjoy participating in community events throughout the year, from local races and school initiatives to community celebrations and charitable programs that bring neighbors together.

I am proud to hold the ChFC® designation and have been recognized as a Million Dollar Roundtable Qualifier, a member of NAIFA, a State Farm President’s Club Lifetime Member, an Ambassador Travel Qualifier, and a 2022 President’s Club Trophy Winner. These experiences reinforce my commitment to providing knowledgeable service and helping customers navigate important insurance decisions with confidence.

Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my husband Scott, our two stepsons, daughters-in-law, and our extended family. I am a lifelong sports fan who closely follows football and basketball, especially Oklahoma teams, and I also enjoy traveling and discovering new places.

For those relocating to Central Florida, my team can assist with in-state and out-of-state policy transfers for customers moving to Lake County, Orange County, and Sumter County. Whether you're looking for a personalized quote, a coverage review, or guidance selecting Auto Insurance, Homeowners Insurance, Life Insurance, or Business Insurance coverage for your next chapter, I invite you to call, stop by, or connect with us to get started.

Q: How soon can I get insured for my car?

A: In some cases, car insurance coverage can begin the same day you purchase a policy. The timing may vary depending on your situation. We can help you get coverage quickly when you need it. Heather is proud to serve the Clermont community.

Q: What are the insurance requirements on a leased car?

A: If you're leasing a vehicle, the requirements are usually a bit higher than standard coverage. In most cases, you'll need liability, comprehensive, and collision coverage, and the leasing company may need to be listed on your policy. We're always happy to walk you through exactly what's needed. Serving Clermont and the surrounding area, Heather can help answer your questions.

Q: Is homeowners insurance required?

A: Homeowners insurance requirements can vary depending on your state and situation, but most lenders will require it if you have home financing. Even when it's not required, many homeowners choose to carry coverage to help protect their home and financial well-being from unexpected events. Have questions? Heather in Clermont can walk you through your options.

Q: How would you explain renters insurance?

A: Renters insurance is a simple way to help protect your personal belongings and provide liability coverage while you're renting. Since your landlord's policy typically covers the building itself, this type of coverage is designed to help protect you and the things you own. Heather works with Clermont residents to find coverage that fits.

Q: What should I know about life insurance?

A: Life insurance is designed to help provide financial support to your loved ones if something happens to you. It can help cover expenses like daily living costs, debts, or future needs, depending on the type of policy and coverage you choose. Heather serves Clermont, FL and is happy to help with your insurance needs.
