If the prices go up I can just call him and ask for a new round of quotes, if nothing has changed on my end that's a 30 second conversation, he just uses my last set of info and a few hours later he has new quotes or tells me I'm still doing best where I am.
Brokers are not fiduciaries but they may find you lower rates. They also have to make money and they do it on a percentage of the premium and/or commission. Often you can get a better rate by rate shopping on your own and eliminating another expense in the middle.
