Flood damage is not covered by your typical Homeowners policy and you do not have to live on the coast to be affected by rising water. We can help get you the proper coverages for a rate that is surprisingly less expensive than you might think.
Floods can be devastating, wreaking havoc on homes and leaving families struggling to recover.
According to FEMA, just one inch of water can cause roughly $30k of damage to your property, and 99 percent of U.S. counties have experienced a flood since 1998.
Unfortunately, according to recent data, only around 15% of homeowners have flood insurance. This means that the vast majority of homeowners are unprepared for the financial burden that comes with repairing or rebuilding their homes after a flood event.
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) flood policies typically take 30 days to go into effect, so if you don’t have flood insurance but are interested,please contact the NFIP at https://www.floodsmart.gov/
