Local insurance agent. East Texas native. Someone who actually picks up the phone.
Hunter Chaumont isn't your typical insurance agent. Before founding Compass Insurance Co., he spent years developing the skills and work ethic that define how he serves clients today.
His career began with nearly a decade in sales at some of the nation's largest retailers — experience that gave him a deep understanding of what customers actually need versus what's easy to sell. That discipline translated directly into insurance when Hunter transitioned to agency leadership, where he hired and personally trained 38 agents over two years, shaping the culture and standards that those agents carried into the field.
When Hunter opened Compass Insurance Co., his goal was straightforward: build the kind of agency he'd want for his own family. One that explains coverage in plain English, shops the right carriers, and actually calls back. That commitment has earned him 284 five-star Google reviews and the trust of hundreds of East Texas families and businesses.
Outside the office, Hunter is an active member of the Greater Tyler Area of Realtors (GTAR), connecting him to the local real estate market and the needs of new homeowners throughout the region. He's also a proud sponsor of the Teacher of the Month program for local schools — because the community that supports him deserves his support in return.
When he's not helping clients, you'll find Hunter outdoors — fishing, hunting, and camping across East Texas. He knows this land, these communities, and the people who call them home. That's not just background. It's what makes him a better agent.
Insurance isn't just about policies — it's about people. At Compass Insurance Co., our mission is to make sure every client in East Texas, the Austin metro, and North Houston has coverage that actually protects them — not just paperwork that looks good until something goes wrong.
We believe in being honest about what you need and what you don't. We believe in explaining things clearly, returning calls promptly, and checking in when life changes — not just at renewal time. We believe insurance should be one less thing you worry about.
No hidden fees, no confusing terms. We tell you exactly what you're getting — and exactly what you're not.
We're not just here to sell policies. We're invested in Tyler, TX — its schools, its families, its future.
284 five-star reviews don't happen by accident. We earn trust by delivering real results — better coverage, better prices, better service.
Hundreds of East Texas homeowners, drivers, and business owners have trusted Hunter with their coverage — and taken the time to share their experience.
