Flood Insurance Overview

Flood insurance is often required when the building structure is impacted by the FEMA high-risk floodplain. Insurance policies are typically backed by Federal (National Flood Insurance Program or NFIP) or Private flood insurance providers. A few questions that should be considered when evaluating your flood insurance quote/needs:
  • Do you currently have flood insurance?
  • How much do you pay for flood insurance?
  • Which company is your flood insurance carrier?
  • Did recent changes to flood maps make you eligible for a cheaper premium?
  • Did recent nearby development increase your risk of flooding?
  • Is the Risk Rating 2.0 system going to be better or worse off for you?
  • Did recent drainage improvements by your municipality reduce the flood risk in your area?
